It's not advertising rsyslog. It's advertising a specific commercial product, which happens to have a community edition that is (or says it is) open source.
However, there is some information on the page on that site that is linked to.
Hold on, I did visit the site; I'll make and link to screenshots of the linked page and main page.
Yeah, if it weren't NAA I would've been less sure it's spam, but I don't think it's really trying to answer the question, I think it's trying to advertise.
Screenshots: This is the page it directly links to, which has information that might help answer some question... but which is also even explicitly framed as advertising (it's the "Why?" page on the site for commercial software, and it's really an article about why people should--supposedly--use their product). This is the site's main page.

Not currently in this room: Ferrybig, doppelgreener, Thomas Ward, angussidney, Suraj Rao, tripleee, Mithrandir, Byte Commander, Yvette Colomb, ProgramFOX, Paul Stenne, Andy, Glorfindel, NobodyNada.
@quartata New code admins added, but the PullApprove collaborators list wasn't updated.
This regex should let us catch more wingding content. A lot of wingding's posts aren't conducive to this sort of processing but this will help us better respond to this sort of spam.
$ host -t ns fierydragonlord.com
fierydragonlord.com name server dns1.registrar-servers.com.
fierydragonlord.com name server dns2.registrar-servers.com.
@bwDraco yeah, but how did you arrive at (effectively) p[eins]{2,4}? That matches e.g. pie or pine too, so the search will be slow when it backtracks a lot
That's another wingding pattern that was blacklisted yesterday.
"inch(es)?\ lol" was also blacklisted, though this is a bit more borderline. I might argue that this is no longer necessary thanks to the new, comprehensive regex.
Just checked, the new regex would catch all of these results.
