hello everyone. there was chatter on the IRC a few days ago about log accessibility for the Haiku channels - whitequark is our current logger, and before the jump to OFTC we used logbot. before that, we used echelog, which went defunct in 2020. echelog is long gone now, but its logs were put into the Wayback Machine courtesy of Archive Team. i have spent some time downloading all of the Haiku related channel logs from the archived echelog pages, the 2020-2021 logbot archive, and the 2021-2025 logs from whitequark. what i have now is a full log of Haiku IRC chatter (in all relevant channels) from October 4, 2004 to April 27, 2025. feel free to rehost and spread these files, i make no claim to them.

the archive is 40.0 megabytes compressed, 124.9 megabytes uncompressed. it’s all plaintext and (mostly) UTF-8 encoded. enjoy(?)
