With regards the contact details being redacted ...
In an ideal world this wouldn't be necessary. The dispute would be settled by rational discussion and agreement reached amicably. But the world isn't like that.
Rightly or wrongly someone will take exception and possibly pursue what they see as "justice". Publishing the contacts details might prove just a little too tempting for some.
I do think that actions such as DMCA take-down notices should be a matter of public record, and should be available in a standard place. I would even like to see a "central" repository for easy reference.
