-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It should be noted that you can, like every other freenode user that wants to keep logs, establish a connection and keep your very own. For example, I have a ClueNet shell account, which is very convenient for this purpose, to which irssi stores all of my logs in ~fastlizard4/logs. If I ever want to search the logs, all I have to do is open up nano and use the search function, or simply `cat ~/logs/channel.log|grep 'Search string'`. You simply cannot release these logs to the public (under current policy). In irssi, to start logging, all you have to do is '/log open -autoopen -targets #channel ~/channel.log' and that channel will be logged. Similar commands exist in every IRC client that I know. It may not be totally "open" as you desire, but anyone can do it and have there own set of logs. - -- - --FastLizard4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:FastLizard4 | http://scalar.cluenet.org/~fastlizard4/)
