NEWS

A syslog-ng container image based on Alpine Linux
-------------------------------------------------
Recently, someone suggested I should check out Alpine Linux and prepare a s=
yslog-ng container image based on it. While not supported by the syslog-ng =
project, an Alpine-based syslog-ng container image already exist as part of=
 the Linuxserver project.

Call for testing: syslog-ng in openSUSE Leap 16.0
-------------------------------------------------
Last week, I submitted syslog-ng to openSUSE Leap 16.0. While the distro is=
 still in a pre-alpha stage, everything already works for me as expected. W=
ell, except for syslog-ng, where I found a number of smaller problems. As s=
uch, this blog is a call for testing, both for syslog-ng on openSUSE Leap 1=
6.0 and also for the distribution itself.https://www.syslog-ng.com/communit=

Experimental syslog-ng container image based on Alma Linux
----------------------------------------------------------
The official syslog-ng container image is based on Debian Stable. However, =
we=92ve been getting requests for an RPM-based image for many years. So, I =
made an initial version available based on Alma Linux and now I need your f=
eedback about it!
