I am pleased to announce Version 0.3 of DT_Logger:
DT_Logger is a configurable data logging suite, intended
for "set and forget" operation. It differs from ordinary
DTrace usage in several respects:
* Dozens of probes are commonly used at the same time.
* Sets of probes may be defined and used as desired.
* DT_Logger is generally run in the background.
* The tracing may go on for (many) days.
* The output is both human- and machine-readable.

Version 0.3 Refactoring release (2008.0302)
This version is a substantial refactoring (eg, Perl and CPP
to Ruby and YAML). It also makes administration more powerful,
convenient, etc.
Operational scripts (dt_ctl, dt_format, dt_record)
- mainline scripts are now written in Ruby
- a control script (dt_ctl) has been added
Probes
- the syscall probes are generated from a YAML configuration file
- similar probes are multiplexed (shared) between system calls
- some syscall probes have been added
Miscellany
- DTL is considerably more robust
- the documentation is a bit improved
Status
- This version appears to work well on Leopard.
- This version has not been tried on any other OS.
