Re: [db-wg] Clean up unreferenced maintainers (after 90 days)

Several years ago we did look at deleting not only individual objects or pairs, but whole clusters of objects (PERSON, ROLE, MNTNER, ORGANISATION (org-type: other), KEY-CERT) if non of these objects in a cluster were referenced by any operational objects. It is easy to build up a collection of objects now that will never be deleted, but which serve no useful purpose in the database.

Personally I think it is time to take a more serious look at cleaning out any data that has no reason to be there.

I would be in favour of seeing this done. The less fossilized detritus in the database, the better. Nick
