--- Comment #3 from Kyle M Hall <kyle at bywatersolutions.com> ---
I think for an initial development, we could show a table of messages with the
date/time, a "component" ( basically the module of Koha this is part of ), and
the message itself.

For example, if EDI can't connect to an FTP server for a vendor EDI profile,
would could have a component of "Acquisitions/EDI" and a message like "Unable
to connect to remote server: Failed to connect to $vendor_ftp_host for
$vendor_description ($vendor_id)".

It seems like anything connection to an external service should take advantage
of this kind of feature.

Table columns could be something like:
timestamp
component
message
cleared (timestamp)

The screen would have a "clear all" button to set cleared. Cleared messages
would not show in the staff interface, but would remain in the table until the
cleared messages are deleted by the cleanup database cronjob.
