 This particular Logger::Syslog improves the original by correctly mapping Rails log severities to
 the Syslog counterparts.  It also adds the ability to select a syslog facility other than "user."
 
+Version 1.8.2 quick fix
+Version 1.8.1 fixed missing last character thanks to fork of scambra and undefined method each-line when message isn't an array.
+Version 1.8.0 cuts lines longer then 1024 characters in multiple lines cause syslog cuts them off.
+Version 1.7.3 sends multiple lines to the syslog server instead of one large line which is cut of.
 Version 1.6.7 takes a formatter as logger does and uses call to format the message.
