mod_audit: Support for adding location (GeoIP) to audit events
This can be more privacy-friendly than logging full IP addresses, and also
more informative to a user - IP addresses don't mean much to the average
person, however if they see activity from outside their expected country, they
can immediately identify suspicious activity.
As with IPs, this field is configurable for deployments that would like to
disable it. Location is also not logged when the geoip library is not
available.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Alpha' summary: 'Store who created the invite to create a user account' ... Introduction ============ Invites are an intermediate way between opening registrations completely and closing registrations completely. By letting users invite other users to the server, an administrator exposes themselves again to the risk of abuse. To combat that abuse more effectively, this module allows to store (outside of the user’s information) who created an invite which was used to create the user’s account. Details ======= Add to `modules_enabled`. Caveats ======= - The information is not deleted even when the associated user accounts are deleted. - Currently, there is no way to make any use of that information.
