The only sub project that is left out of our "A" effort is ELAPI

But it is a bit in flux. It is designed up to some point but desperately
needs a month of head down work to get it to the point when the loose
ends scattered around start to make sense.
I just do not have time to work on it at all. And it would be nightmare
for someone to try to untangle my incomplete ideas himself.
I would love someone to eventually take it over because I as a manager
should not be the core contributor to a project. This does not scale.
I think rsyslog is good but not good enough and eventually log
collection should be brought up to the next level.

Please write your ideas. It is always beneficial to evaluate options
come up with a plan.

Thank you for your interest and participation.
