Hi!

I'd like to hear from stakeholders about purging old data from the eventlogging database. Yes, no, why [not], etc.

I understand from Ori that there is a 90 day retention policy, and that purging has been discussed previously but not addressed for various reasons. Certainly there are many timestamps older than 90 days still in the db, and apparently largely untouched by queries?

Perhaps we're in a better position now to do this properly what with data now in multiple places: log files, database, hadoop...

Can we please purge stuff? :-)
