 # logstash
 
-## Status March 17, 2011
+logstash is a tool for managing events and logs. You can use it to collect logs, parse them, and store them for later use (like, for searching). Speaking of searching, logstash comes with a web interface for searching and drilling into all of your logs.
 
-* Currently refactoring to use JRuby a bit better.
-* Writing tests
-* Logstash 1.0 release target later this month.
+It is fully free and fully open source. The license is New BSD, meaning you are pretty much free to use it however you want in whatever way.
