2013-03-05journald: introduce new "systemd-journal" group and make it own the journal ↵Lennart Poettering
files Previously all journal files were owned by "adm". In order to allow specific users to read the journal files without granting it access to the full "adm" powers, introduce a new specific group for this. "systemd-journal" has to be created by the packaging scripts manually at installation time. It's a good idea to assign a static UID/GID to this group, since /var/log/journal might be shared across machines via NFS. This commit also grants read access to the journal files by default to members of the "wheel" and "adm" groups via file system ACLs, since these "almost-root" groups should be able to see what's going on on the system. These ACLs are created by "make install". Packagers probably need to duplicate this logic in their postinst scripts. This also adds documentation how to grant access to the journal to additional users or groups via fs ACLs.

2012-09-28journal: add minimal journal gateway daemon based on GNU libmicrohttpdLennart Poettering
This minimal HTTP server can serve journal data via HTTP. Its primary purpose is synchronization of journal data across the network. It serves journal data in three formats: text/plain: the text format known from /var/log/messages application/json: the journal entries formatted as JSON application/vnd.fdo.journal: the binary export format of the journal The HTTP server also serves a small HTML5 app that makes use of the JSON serialization to present the journal data to the user. Examples: This downloads the journal in text format: # systemctl start systemd-journal-gatewayd.service # wget http://localhost:19531/entries Same for JSON: # curl -H"Accept: application/json" http://localhost:19531/entries Access via web browser: $ firefox http://localhost:19531/

2012-04-12relicense to LGPLv2.1 (with exceptions)Lennart Poettering
We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+. Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within systemd. The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT. The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
