+Version 5.5.2 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2009-11-??
+- worked around an issue where omfile failed to compile on32 bit platforms
+ under some circumstances (this smells like a gcc problem, but a simple
+ solution was available). Thanks to Kenneth Marshall for some advice.
+- extended testbench
+- bugfix: hostname accidently set to IP address for some message sources,
+ for example imudp. Thanks to Anton for reporting this bug. [imported v4]
+- bugfix: ompgsql had problems with transaction support, what actually
+ rendered it unsuable. Thanks to forum user "horhe" for alerting me
+ on this bug and helping to debug/fix it! [imported from 5.3.6]
+- bugfix: $CreateDirs variable not properly initialized, default thus
+ was random (but most often "on") [imported from v3]
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Version 5.5.1 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2009-11-27
+- introduced the ablity for netstream drivers to utilize an epoll interface
+ This offers increased performance and removes the select() FDSET size
+ limit from imtcp. Note that we fall back to select() if there is no
+ epoll netstream drivers. So far, an epoll driver has only been
+ implemented for plain tcp syslog, the rest will follow once the code
+ proves well in practice AND there is demand.
+- re-implemented $EscapeControlCharacterTab config directive
+ Based on Jonathan Bond-Caron's patch for v4. This now also includes some
+ automatted tests.
+- bugfix: enabling GSSServer crashes rsyslog startup
+ Thanks to Tomas Kubina for the patch [imgssapi]
+- bugfix (kind of): check if TCP connection is still alive if using TLS
+ Thanks to Jonathan Bond-Caron for the patch.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Version 5.5.0 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2009-11-18
+- moved DNS resolution code out of imudp and into the backend processing
+ Most importantly, DNS resolution now never happens if the resolved name
+ is not required. Note that this applies to imudp - for the other inputs,
+ DNS resolution almost comes for free, so we do not do it there. However,
+ the new method has been implemented in a generic way and as such may
+ also be used by other modules in the future.
+- added option to use unlimited-size select() calls
+ Thanks to varmjofekoj for the patch
+ This is not done in imudp, as it natively supports epoll().
+- doc: improved description of what loadable modules can do

Version 5.3.6 [BETA] (rgerhards), 2010-01-13
- bugfix: ompgsql did not properly check the server connection in
tryResume(), which could lead to rsyslog running in a thight loop

+- debugondemand mode caused backgrounding to fail - close to a bug, but I'd
+ consider the ability to background in this mode a new feature...

Version 4.5.7 [v4-beta] (rgerhards), 2009-11-18
