rsyslog changes upto 2007-12-14

This is my worklog for rsyslog:

2007-12-12
– begun to shuffle the mark code to a separate module – that will take some
time and definitely require much more code shuffling. This is the begin
of the input module interface

2007-12-14
– created new branch for what will become 2.0.0 stable
– begin work on on immark, the first input module. In the long term
this will lead to a complete rewrite of the input system
– changed license to GPLv3 (for what is to become rsyslog v3)
– moved core threading helpers out of syslogd.c
– remove USE_PTHREADS macro from all sources except omfwd.c (I wait
for a gssapi patch from Red Hat, removing these macros would probably
cause unnecessary grief…)
– tried approach to terminate input module thread via pthread_kell() – so
far, seems to work ok
– begun to create input module interface and macros
– changed module interface to include function to query type
– milestone: can load input module dynamically, but can not do anything
with it – now I need to think about activating IMs…
