Yaroslav,
Your interpretation is more or less correct, although the wording in
the policy is a bit fuzzy.
I do not think that that log files should ever be removed. But as
the last hour on IRC and [0] showed, at least three people disagree
with me, so I am outnumbered.
0. http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/03/msg00688.html
Thus, I am closing the bug.
Sorry for the noise.
