Since I use php as primarily a web scripting language, I haven't implemented the client reciever api. This would be easy enough to do, but would really only be useful in a daemon-type process. Again easy enough to add, it just hasn't become relevant to me yet (I will consider that a change request, though.:) spread itself comes with a number of demo clients and there is the very nice spreadlogd (http://www.backhand.org/mod_log_spread/spreadlogd-1.4.tar.gz) for journaling messages to disk (used mainly as a log journaler for mod_log_spread or for the spread-ported syslog).
