 > '''netweb''': Does anyone know if an archive of the IRC logs was ever
 created before the removal of the channels at
 https://irclogs.wordpress.org/ ?
 > Only #wordpress-dev exists there these days :(
 > '''sergey''': I think it might be due to the `filemtime()` check:
 https://code.trac.wordpress.org/browser/irc-
 logger/public_html/index.php?marks=28,29#L25
 > Maybe the other channels didn't have any activity for some time? If
 that's the case, that check should probably be removed.

 `#wordpress` (we've removed the logger from all other rooms)
 > So yeah, you're probably right

 Currently, the IRC logs viewer skips `.sqlite.db` files older than a day.
 The check was already there in the
 [https://code.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/117 initial IRC logger commit],
 probably to skip inactive channels. Now that the logger was removed from
 most of the channels excerpt `#wordpress`, I guess this check should be
 removed to make all the archives available again.
