Are these wiki pages still valid for ZCS 7.x?

http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Logger_(ZCS_6.0.x_and_later)
http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Logger_(ZCS_5.0.x_and_earlier)

A) yes

Q) In a multi node environment, can I mix logger daemons (syslogd, rsyslog, syslog-ng)?

A) Yes, however you are likely to encounter compatibility problems;

http://rsyslog.com/doc/v3compatibility.html
Q) TCP or UDP?

A) UDP is recommended since we have seen a tcp based syslog freezing a whole system.
Here is an interesting blog
