Re: [savannah-help-public] [sr #106581] doing something about stale jobs?

[Brandon Invergo]

Hi Assaf,

Thanks for the interest in picking this task back up.  The topic of
cleaning up the list has come up a few times so I think there is still
merit to the idea, thankless slog of a job that it may be.

One thought (without knowing anything about the software backend): might
it be easier to just hide items older than X years rather than deleting
them, and make them still be viewable via an "Old items" link?  Then no
one will have to dig through all the old posts to verify that they're
still relevant, no one might get offended by their post being removed,
and the list that initial visitors see will still appear substantially
cleaned up.

That is, of course, only if that part of the code is easy to hack on.
