log publish/unpublish actions For certain node types I want to log/track each time the publish status changes from published to unpublised and from unpublished to published. I am aware I could do this with rules and write log entries into the standard log, but I don't think this is a good solution.
I prefer to have a specific logtable for that, so that I can export it and that I can also show the history in a special tab of the node.

I was doing now some research, but could not find anything in this direction.

Is there a module I have not seen and which would be the solution?

If not, what would be the best approach?
Thanks
The only module I can think of is Workbench Moderation. It may be much too large and complex for your needs, but within the node's "Moderate" tab, it provides a list of all editing actions including the change of the node's status.
