the query would be something like "delete from $mytable where $insertdate < $(today-1month)" with the variables holding the correct names etc. Yet I strongly disagree with this behaviour for a default. At least the 1 month rollback sounds like too few from a data-warehouse point of view and too much from a duty of secrecy point of view. The only real alternative sounds to be a debconf asking for the proper length. Does that sound ok for everybody? -- Best regards, Kilian
