Are there no channels with public logs? For a while some had them and some did not.

A few years ago, I had asked that IRC have a searchable archive of discussions. I was told that there were daily logs and I could get one if I asked. I asked, and was denied. Until IRC commits itself to openness, it should have little to no impact on any facet of our project. Without searchable archives, IRC is not open in the modern sense, regardless of who or how you can join it, or view it. The archives of this mailing list are searchable.

Perhaps you should get involved. Come to the meeting, and maybe we can discuss this issue.
There are arguments for and against publicly logging channels, and I'd love to hear your input on this issue. We have considered the question in the past, but to my knowledge there was no agreement on any change. If you want that to change, you'll have to convince people.
For what it's worth, I think publicly logging in public channels is a good idea. You're not alone in your views, so let's see if we can hammer something out.
Thanks,
