I'm no expert but, I thought a text file would be fairly secure. You could format it so it could be imported easily and there is little, if no risk, of malicious code in a plain text file. I don't think it needs to be encrypted either. If it is stored on the local server it's even better in my opinion, as the information gathered is specific to that server and the server admin can take steps to correct any bugs that may only be present on that system. Any bug information specific to the current release being run on that server can be forwarded on to a central database later.
