I'm afraid it might not be as easy as anyone would think:

1. journald does not do UDP remote syslogging, according to lennart at his
talk at FOSDEM?

==> this means old syslog shouldn't be obsoleted

2. it appears it also doesn't fill tty12 with info as rsyslog does

==> if true, and not fixable, then i would still suggest to have both.
