Does wordpress create any dated logs of activity? ie core updates, plugin download dates etc?

No, it doesn’t. You could hook into the appropriate filters and save the information in an option or in a custom post type. I would log updates to PHP, MySQL and the server software too. Would be an interesting project. :)

ah shame - just needed to check some dates against some scripts errors that may be due to client running wp & plugin updates. Found a few plugins now and looking into them. Thanks, Dan. – daniel Crabbe Mar 21 '12 at 10:11
Check against Apache/nginx/or-your-flavor access logs and compare the dates of wp-admin/plugin.php against whatever time frames you have + check dates of files/directories created. The /updates/ directory should have something for you. – soulseekah Mar 21 '12 at 11:58

I use a plugin called BTEV - Bluetrait Event Viewer that does this job quite well.
