You might want to reconsider that:
Some countries have laws, that regulate how long and what has to be archived:

Switzerland:
http://www.itandlaw.ch/html/publikationen/pdf/KMUMagazin04.pdf
Germany:
http://www.recht-im-internet.de/themen/archivierung.htm

10 years is considered the minimum.

But that might not be what Pharo or Fuel is supposed to be used for.
