All files in /data/project/betacommand-dev/irc/logs have the
permissions 0644 (-rw-r--r--).

In the back of my mind there was the memory that rsync some-
times creates files as 0000, and as rsync was used to mi-
grate the NFS volumes mid-November, that could have been a
cause, but according to
https://download.samba.org/pub/unpacked/rsync/OLDNEWS that
behaviour was changed more than 10 years ago.
