Path is hard coded in the event_log.module file which might not be the same for all users.
A path that would be independent of machine would solve the issue.

It would be great if some visualizations are available for the administrator so that he could make decisions easily and quickly instead of analysing raw data.

As of now all commit messages are somewhat vague... Go through this link to find out what a good commit message look like : http://api.coala.io/en/latest/Developers/Writing_Good_Commits.html

Currently we are not following issue driven development... However, it is a preferred way...
For every new feature, there should be a corresponding issue beforehand and commit implementing that new feature should address this issue.

It would be useful to add the option to log to a file or to the syslog, instead of to the database. On larger/more active sites, this could not only provided a performance boost, but offer a system-level approach to history.

Current event_log module does not notify the owner of an account about fraudulent login attempts to his account but blocks the user's account temporarily after 5 incorrect attempts.
A feature that will notify authorised user about the 3 consecutive illegal access to his/her account is required.This feature should send an email to user's email provided at the time of account creation ,to notify when 3 password fails occur . Also sending the IP address from which failure has occurred can aid tracing the intruder.

The event_log DB accumulates a lot of data which might create chaos during analysis.
Typically, all logs are verified, which is why the administrator should have an option to clear the logs to prevent clutter. Suitable permissions should be provided to authorized users to clear these logs.

Currently, DB records are deleted after a particular row limit set by the administrator, but no backup is created for these deleted logs.
It would be useful if a backup in a file is created for these logs for future reference.
Also, if these backups are mailed to the administrator when required or when cron runs, would be a cherry on the cake.
