In practice, modules are only utilized for output in the current +release. The module interface is not yet completed and a moving target. We do +not recommend to write a module based on the current specification. If you do, +please be prepared that future released of rsyslog will probably break your +module. </p> +<p>A goal of modularization is to provide an easy to use plug-in interface. +However, this goal is not yet reached and all modules must be statically linked.</p> +<h2>Module Security</h2> +<p>Modules are directly loaded into rsyslog's address space. As such, any module +is provided a big level of trust. Please note that further module interfaces +might provide a way to load a module into an isolated address space. This, +however, is far from being completed. So the number one rule about module +security is to run only code that you know you can trust.</p> +<h2>Copyright</h2> +<p>Copyright (c) 2007 +<a href="http://www.adiscon.com/en/people/rainer-gerhards.php">Rainer Gerhards</a> +and <a href="http://www.adiscon.com/en/">Adiscon</a>.</p> +<p>Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under +the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later +version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, +no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.
