Why contribute to syslog-ng upstream?
One of the returning questions I received recently: why contribute to the syslog-ng upstream? I guess it is a question many open-source projects receive regularly. There are many generic answers. Here I would like to focus more on syslog-ng, focusing on various parts of it.
Of course, the generic answers also apply. Syslog-ng is an open-source project, free to use, modify, and extend. By contributing, you can give something back and improve syslog-ng for everyone. You do not have to be a developer in order to contribute: bug reports, configuration examples, PatternDB rules are all very useful contributions.
