Description
The patch enables a votingapi relation and action for views and provides the possibility to turn off IP-logging for registered users.
The comment_moderation module is based on votingapi and written by Kyle Cunningham. He gave us a development version and we extended it. Now it works and provides a slashdot-like user based comment moderation. But it can also be used as a convenient moderation tool. We'll use it at our upcoming website linksunten.indymedia.org.

This version of comment_moderation should work together with comment_mover...

There's a problem with this approach, unfortunately: without the IP checking, anonymous voting wouldn't really be possible. Also, have you considered posting the comment moderation as a standalone module? VotingAPI itself doesn't implement any user-facing voting widgets; it's just about managing the data.
I'm going to be postponing this one until the 2.1 release; there are still some questions that need to be ironed out, IMO.

Yes, you are right, that's why we made the IP checking optional. We don't want to store any IP adresses but if someone wishes to: it's still the default.
We are not going to release the comment moderation module since CitizenKane will. He started the project, we just enhanced his code and made it work.

I'd love to see where this goes as this is exactly the kind of functionality I would like to see moving forward with comments and the voting api.

Sorry we don't have time for this module at the moment. Attached is the current version we are using at http://linksunten.indymedia.org
