Well, that's how it should be. All other systems I know like Windows NT 
Login, Linux login etc. are case-sensitive, so we should follow that standard.

I have asked Fred Pacquier who maintains the web pages to put something on, 
but he hasn't replied.

Basically you simply run "elconv" in the directory where all the *.log files 
live. The only option is the "-v" flag for verbose output. If you have 
several directories with log files, you run it once in each directory.

This operation is done via Java Script, which has to be enabled in the 
browser. If anybody knows a better way, please let me know.

No, not yet. I put it on the wishlist. I'm looking for a C function which can 
doe lexical evaluations like

  author="stefan ritt" AND (category=Question OR category="Bug Fix")

does anybody know such a function?

You run two instances of the elogd daemon like:

elogd -p 8082 -c /usr/local/elog/elogd1.cfg
elogd -p 8083 -c /usr/local/elog/elogd2.cfg
