[rsyslog] Definition of "audit-grade"

[Rainer Gerhards]

Hi all,

we have begun to use the term "audit-grade" to indicate ultra-reliable
processing modes. I think this term is intuitive, at least for folks involved
in auditing. I just wonder if there is an official definition or an official
term that I so far missed.

I've tried to define what "audit-grade" for rsyslog means, see section 1.2.1
of this paper:

http://www.rsyslog.com/download/design.pdf

Pointers to an official definition as well as text suggestions are most
welcome. I think it is actually vitally important to define what we mean with
this term, as I try to implement "audit-gradeness". So it would probably
better if all parties involved have the same understanding of what that means
(we already had quite different views on a similar concept, namely in regard
to sudden power loss).

Feedback appreciated,
Rainer
