syslog-ng 3.2.1 released
Hi,
After 2 alpha and a beta release I’ve decided to declare that syslog-ng OSE 3.2 is now stable, and thus I’ve released 3.2.1, the first in the 3.2.x series. This version has the largest list of features even since the syslog-ng project was born, so make sure you check out all the goodies. 
The key features were already covered on this blog in earlier posts, the most important ones in my opinion are:
- licensing change to LGPL/GPL combo, without the need to sign a contributory agreement
- plugins
- log message correllation support in db-parser
- automatic pattern generation for existing log files with pdbtool patternize
- template functions
Read the changelog and/or the documentation for more information. The diffstat between 3.1 and 3.2 are quite big:
407 files changed, 50305 insertions(+), 36487 deletions(-)
Considering that OSE 3.2 has 70k lines (more specifically 70163) in its git repository, this is quite a lot.

The list of changes are summarised in the changelog here:

Happy logging!
