1 As discussed a few years ago. We agreed to trim the package moves
2 updates to maintain 4 years history active in the tree. It currently
3 still goes back to include 2010. There was a recent edit to a 2010
4 file that triggered a full re-processing of those files. Last night for
5 me it was triggered again. I don't know the cause, but I really don't
6 care enough to investigate. But it prompted bug 576752.

8 That said, being 2016, I am going to trim 2010 and 2011 files from the
9 active tree in 48 hours unless anyone shows a valid and justifiable
10 reason to keep them.

12 Unlike last time which I made the trimmed update files available for
13 download. With the tree now being git based. They will be easily
14 available in the git history.
