If a new system is implemented whereby IPs are stored in the database
and not just in the log files, I would have no objection to stewards
having access to these. However, until then, I do not support stewards
being given access to the same logs that the developers currently have
to check for IPs. Firstly, it would be largely a waste of time as they
are too large to search through efficiently, and secondly, they
include details of not only page saves, but also page views. This
would be too much of a privacy violation if stewards had that sort of
information.
Goodness no - I wasn't thinking about giving stewards the key to the castle -
(they would probably get lost and break the fine china). Just a viewing room
(which I hope some developer will build for us -- which reminds me of my tip
jar idea and Erik's software bounty concept...).
