of registered users became *private* data.
I would like to know if that disappearance was discussed at that time
and if it was on purpose that ip data of loggued in people became
*private* data.

I have a feeling this might have been done to make non-logged-in pages
cacheable in an attempt to improve performance, rather than out of any
privacy concerns.
