Yes, this currently emits to file or syslog and you need to take care of the alerting. Of course, this is the very initial release and we plan to improve it. If you have a specific need or idea, feel free to open an issue or let us know on the mailing list.

Frankly, I'd leave it as is - I (and I'm sure lots of other opers) already have some kind of central log collection that we can alert off. Nothing more frustrating than all the various monitoring systems each with their own unique take on alerting ;) Just imho of course.
