Hi all,

From reading the archives there seem to be some requests from people
to have the ability to use a syslog daemon instead of the Windows
Event Log or C:\CYGWIN_SYSLOG.TXT for syslog output.  I would also
like that.

I would like to try to implement this so that a registry flag controls
whether the current method is used or whether to try and talk to the
local syslog daemon.

Is there any reason to not do this?  If I don't hear back from here I
guess I'll try and get on the -developers mailing list and see what
they say.

Regards,
David
