I've started playing with it, and I like it better than logsurfer. 
Logsurfer does have the advantage of putting together several lines, but
epylog is easier to configure, generates really-nice reports, and also
has RPMs in the DAG repository.  Since I'm in the "patch blindly and
hope for the best" camp, having it patched by "yum update" is a big
advantage.
