Here at NetApp, we're planning some changes in the way messages are implemented, to provide more specific information (e.g. unique message id's, to identify exactly where messages are coming from), handle things like internationalization, and make it easier to post-process messages.
We'd like to know how many people currently have scripts to process the /etc/messages file (and/or any other destinations of syslog or console output). If you would be affected by any changes to the format of /etc/messages or console output, please send me email, so we can take your input into account. Thanks much.
