CentOS 7 potential release

And you should probably make sure that you do since every existing log analysis tool requires text logs.

Also, remote syslog, which journald doesn't support.

I'm afraid you're mistaken, please don't spread misinformation:

I was going on information from Red Hat that RHEL7 can't do that. Turns out, Red Hat was right, RHEL7 can't.

systemd-journald-remote was added with systemd 212, RHEL and CentOS ship with 208, so no, journald on RHEL7/CentOS7 can not do remote logging.

I also like completely ignoring how journald breaks every log analysis tool.

touche, you are correct. I'm sure it will be added as a backported enhancement at some point, but installing rsyslog is a yum install away and solves both needs.
