Please read what i wrote about 10 minutes ago.
Let me suggest the most viable solution. It may be advisable to allow public logging, but I highly doubt that people are going to read pages and pages of text and look through logs that could be hours of conversation, depending on the activity in the channels. The suggestion i would like to make is to have continuous logging of the channel. Then as and when discussion occurs, a note can be left on the meta page stating briefly what was discussed and if anything come from that discussion. Logs can then be requested on that discussion as and when it is needed. We could get a bot to do the logging and then simply have someone call up the logs as and when is needed.
