Re: [evlog-dev] --ANNOUNCE-- evlog-1.5.0 is available

Hi,

It doesn't seem that linuxEvlog.html has been
updated regarding the new "plug-in" capability
of evlog 1.5.0.  Is there any documentation
available (maybe in draft form) that I can have
a look at regarding this specific feature?  This
is mentioned in section 8 (HOWTO) but marked as
coming soon. 

Thanks,

/steve
