systemd System and Service Manager
+CHANGES WITH 193:
+
+ * journalctl gained a new --cursor= switch to show entries
+ starting from the specified location in the journal.
+
+ * We now enforce a size limit on journal entry fields exported
+ with "-o json" in journalctl. Fields larger than 4K will be
+ assigned null. This can be turned off with --all.
+
+ * An (optional) journal gateway daemon is now available as
+ "systemd-journal-gatewayd.service". This service provides
+ access to the journal via HTTP and JSON. This functionality
+ will be used to implement live log synchronization in both
+ pull and push modes, but has various other users too, such
+ as easy log access for debugging of embedded devices. Right
+ now it is already useful to retrieve the journal via HTTP:
+
+ # systemctl start systemd-journal-gatewayd.service
+ # wget http://localhost:19531/entries
+
+ This will download the journal contents in a
+ /var/log/messages compatible format. The same as JSON:
+
+ # curl -H"Accept: application/json" http://localhost:19531/entries
+
+ This service is also accessible via a web browser where a
+ single static HTML5 app is served that uses the JSON logic
+ to enable the user to do some basic browsing of the
+ journal. This will be extended later on. Here's an example
+ screenshot of this app in its current state:
