  You can change the group on the siteXX/logs directory to someone other
  than the site group, for example to home. bear in mind the access
  and access.gz files  etc already have groups set on them so you have to
  change them as well, additional files created by logrotate should
  belong to your new group tho, since the logs directory is sticky,,,

  Caveat: having no quota on logs opens you up to a perverse kind of
  server attack where someone can fill up the sick by making lots of
  http requests that just log error messages....(ok, it's weak and would 
  take about a year to fill a 10 gig disk..)
