+blog post</a> on this topic, written a bit early, but covering the essence).<p>
+In <b>November 2007</b>, rsyslog became the default syslogd in Fedora 8.
+Obviously, that was something we *really* liked. Community involvement also is
+still growing. There is one sad thing to note: ever since summer, there is an
+extremely hard to find segfault bug. It happens on very rare occasions only and
+never in lab. We are hunting this bug for month now, but still could not get
+hold of it. Unfortunately, this also affects the new features schedule. It makes
+limited sense to implement new features if problems with existing ones are not
+really understood.<p><b>December 2008</b> showed the appearance of a postgres
+output module, contributed by sur5r. With 1.20.0, December is also the first
+time since the bughunt that we introduce other new features. It has been deciced
+that we carefully will add features in order to not affect the overall project
+by these rare bugs. Still, the bughunt is top priortiy, but we need to have more
+data to analyse.<p>Be sure to visit Rainer's <a href="http://rgerhards.blogspot.com/">syslog blog</a>
to get some more insight into the development and futures of rsyslog and syslog in general.
