#wikimedia-toolserver IRC logs are now available online at <http://tools.wikimedia.de/~tim/cgi-bin/irc_log>. These logs are constantly updated by TDSBot, so hopefully these logs will provide a way to play catch up to information missed. It should now also be possible to grep through the logs for a question you may have, to see if it's already been answered (grep hemlock? :-))

To address privacy concerns, you must complete a quick verification process to ensure that you are indeed who you say you are. From there on in, you just have to click on the log in link and log in. All passwords are stored in a MySQL table using sha-1 and a salt.
