+ToRELP
+======
+
+Tornado based RELP server
+
+Setup
+=====
+
+The test script uses port 20514
+
+On rsyslog we want to put the following in place:
+
+```
+$ModLoad omrelp
+
+$WorkDirectory /var/spool/rsyslog  # default location for work (spool) files
+
+$ActionQueueType LinkedList   # use asynchronous processing
+$ActionQueueFileName localhost # set file name, also enables disk mode
+$ActionResumeInterval 1    # infinite retries on insert failure
+$ActionResumeRetryCount -1    # infinite retries on insert failure
+$ActionQueueSaveOnShutdown on # save in-memory data if rsyslog shuts down
+
+*.* :omrelp:localhost:20514;RSYSLOG_ForwardFormat
+```
+
+Why?
+====
+
+New cool message queue using reliable messaging services that is simple to configure
+
+How?
+====
+
+Check out ```test.py```.  Just inherit the ToRELPServer class and override the class method ```handle_syslog_message```.
+
+Todo
+====
+
+Add URL style dispatcher
+Add datetime parser
+Add new inbound formats
+Add plain TCP syslog support
