Comment (by iwakeh):

 Answer to open question
 'How does the script handle dates differing from the log-files date?' (cf.
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/webstats.git/tree/src/sanitize.py#n56
 python implementation])
 Currently, log lines that have a date after the log-file's date or more
 than a day before the log-file's date are dropped and the dates are logged
 by the script.  Lines from a day earlier are written to the earlier log
 file.

 Thus, sanitized logs can be published once they are two days old.
