Subject: Changing ioc logging. Should I use a modified iocLogServer?

I've been tasked with reviewing how we're currently handling ioc logging. Currently, the console concentrators we're using (Perle, WTI) are handling logging.

iocLogServer immediately comes to mind, but I swear that I saw somewhere that it's no longer going to be included in epics. Is that the case? Will it continue to be supported?

iocLogServer also does not conform to our standard logging practices. That means I'd have to change it but I believe these would be changes the community would enjoy.

1) Log rotation on the date/time instead of file size.
2) Individual log files per-ioc.

I'd like some feedback from folks!!!

Thanks, tom.c
