irc logging - Analytics

14 Sep 2012

fyi, I know very little about IRC in general.  Is this already happening?
 Is there a reason we don't want to?  Should it be public?  I was hoping to
install irssi <http://irssi.org/> (andrew?) on stat1 and have it make logs
that we could all check when we've joined the channel too late to get the
hangout link, or need to look for link that someone posted a week ago.  I'm
imagining just grep it over an ssh connection for now, though if we wanted
to share it publicly we could create a labs instance and run one of those
web interfaces that is built around irssi logs
(irclog<http://irclog.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html>ml>,
webssi <http://wouter.coekaerts.be/webssi/>--suggestions welcome as none of
these look super canonical)

thanks,

evan
