Example:
export NODE=https://demo2.test.dataone.org/knb/d1/mn
curl -k -s "$NODE/v1/log?start=0&count=3"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Now checking for READ permission on each log entry. This could get expensive. Strike that, it WILL be expensive.
For Metacat, we opened up log entries to the public by redacting the IP and user for each entry. We could take the same approach for D1 so that you'd see the partial entries no matter what, but only the CN could view all details of the entries.
