+Version 5.9.0 [V5-DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2011-06-08
+- imfile: added $InputFileMaxLinesAtOnce directive
+- enhanced imfile to support input batching
+- added capability for imtcp and imptcp to activate keep-alive packets
+ at the socket layer. This has not been added to imttcp, as the latter is
+ only an experimental module, and one which did not prove to be useful.
+ reference: http://kb.monitorware.com/post20791.html
+- added support to control KEEPALIVE settings in imptcp
+ this has not yet been added to imtcp, but could be done on request.
+- $ActionName is now also used for naming of queues in impstats
+ as well as in the debug output
+- bugfix: do not open files with full privileges, if privs will be dropped
+ This make the privilege drop code more bulletproof, but breaks Ubuntu's
+ work-around for log files created by external programs with the wrong
+ user and/or group. Note that it was long said that this "functionality"
+ would break once we go for serious privilege drop code, so hopefully
+ nobody still depends on it (and, if so, they lost...).
+- bugfix: pipes not opened in full priv mode when privs are to be dropped
+- this begins a new devel branch for v5
+- better handling of queue i/o errors in disk queues. This is kind of a
+ bugfix, but a very intrusive one, this it goes into the devel version
+ first. Right now, "file not found" is handled and leads to the new
+ emergency mode, in which disk action is stopped and the queue run
+ in direct mode. An error message is emited if this happens.
+- added support for user-level PRI provided via systemd
+- added new config directive $InputTCPFlowControl to select if tcp
+ received messages shall be flagged as light delayable or not.
+- enhanced omhdfs to support batching mode. This permits to increase
+ performance, as we now call the HDFS API with much larger message
+ sizes and far more infrequently
+- bugfix: failover did not work correctly if repeated msg reduction was on
+ affected directive was: $ActionExecOnlyWhenPreviousIsSuspended on
+ closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=236

Version 5.8.2 [V5-stable] (rgerhards), 2011-06-??
