Steve Lee (@SteveL-MSFT) this RFC seems to miss labels in order to be considered for review

This is useful, but it makes no sense to do this in PowerShell repository - it is too expensive. I'd look that .Net Core suggest for remote logging.

Travis Plunk (@TravisEz13) Paul Higinbotham (@PaulHigin) please take a look at this to see if it aligns with some discussions we've had to enable logging to Azure Log Analytics

##### Configuration
The plan would be to import the configuration data with the following example properties with example values;
1. StreamLogType
* TCP, UDP, HTTP, HTTPS

How would TCP, UDP, and HTTP data be encrypted? If we don't have an plan to encrypt, the options should not be included.

Perhaps move these to alternatives with notes that we need to figure out how to secure the channels.

@PowerShell/powershell-committee discussed this one in detail today. We believe that there's massive value in figuring out how to tee logs off to remote logging providers, but a bunch of the semantics in this RFC are specific to Splunk.

Instead, we think an RFC should be authored that builds a provider/plugin model for allowing multiple remote logging providers. This RFC should also give consideration to whether local logging targets should be treated the same way (e.g. if you want to exclusively log to a remote target, maybe in serverless/stateless scenarios). There should also be a consideration of whether we should have something like a Get-PSLog or Write-PSLog that are agnostic to logging providers.

The PowerShell Team has a strong interest in picking this up, but we have no idea when we can get to it right now. We only know that it should be a flexible, pluggable model.

For this particular RFC, we're rejecting it and filing an issue to track the need for the new RFC.
