If someones got superuser/root/admin privileges. Then you need to trust them, which I do (here).
You are not forced to put secret, highly personal, critical information through the forums PM system. If you are worried, you could either never use the PM system, only send unimportant information, or PM an email account reference (doesn't have to be your main/real one), and use that to communicate with the other parties.

You then have to understand the database - but I daresay the design document won't be available, so that makes it challenging - and build a program that will pull everything together in a straightforward presentation of the data.
... and this is not taking into consideration ANY of the abnormal conditions that a GOOD piece of software will cope with.
I just can't see Dave jumping into that abyss any time soon.

I can't imagine any possible scenario that would be so important that I'd spend any time learning how to read PM's from the database.
So don't even both asking me to try.
Even if I got a police request or court order for some reason, I'd probably just hand over the raw database and say "here, you do the work to find it".

That sounds like the Dave I (sorta) know.

Yeah, it's not like we're short of actual video evidence of him trying to install software and get to grips with it. :)
