+- includes changes from 8.22.0:
+  * ompgsql: add template support
+  * generate somewhat better error message on config file syntax error
+- includes changes from 8.21.0:
+  * CHANGE OF BEHAVIOUR:
+    by default, internal messages are no longer logged via the internal
+    bridge to rsyslog but via the syslog() API call [either directly or
+    via liblogging). For the typical single-rsyslogd-instance installation this
+    is mostly unnoticable (except for some additional latency). If multiple
+    instances are run, only the "main" (the one processing system log messages)
+    will see all messages. To return to the old behaviour, do either of those
+    two:
+    1) add in rsyslog.conf:
+       global(processInternalMessages="on")
+    2) export the environment variable RSYSLOG_DFLT_LOG_INTERNAL=1 
+       This will set a new default - the value can still be overwritten via
+       rsyslog.conf (method 1). Note that the environment variable must be
+       set in your **startup script**.
+    For more information, please visit
+    http://www.rsyslog.com/rsyslog-error-reporting-improved/
+  * slightly improved TLS syslog error messages
+  * queue subsystem: improved robustness
