	Keep in mind that liblognorm is pretty young at this point. 
So more documentation probably needs to be done.  Also,  there's not
much in the way of rulebase files yet,  but that will likely change
in the future.  Right now,  you're probably going to have to write your
own rulebase files.  When you do that,  keep a copy so that you can
send them in later.  :)

	Check out "normalizer.c" with the liblognorm git.  It's a basic
program that does normalization.
