Let me repeat the question I asked at the meeting. From reading the
draft, it was not clear how the new SDEs are added to syslog messages.
Is it reasonable to assume that the originator of a syslog message has
the relevant information? If not, what does it take to distribute the
necessary information to the originators? Or is the idea that proxies
add SDEs while forwarding syslog messages? I like to see how this can
reasonably implemented and deployed.

I probably also have question what precisely the semantics of the
prosed SDEs are but that perhaps becomes clear once I understand where
the knowledge for which service/customer a log message is being
created is coming from and which component is expected to do the
tagging.
