Hey team, I'll be at sea on and off this week, and as such my Internet access will depend on wifi availability while in port. 22a seems stable, but if any critical problems arise, feel free to prepare a release and bug Alfie to upload it.

hello everyone, thanks to todd 1.2.21 is out :) every release getting better, i would like to get consensus on these "important" bugs: #252078 logtail: should depend on perl >= 5.8 sarge as any other modern linux distro use perl 5.8.x, it's even inside of its base. backports are under the peril of its author if no one voices up, i'll close that bug in the next days.
