    What do you think?

    Sounds fine for me. I don't tend to care for things older than the
    last week at most.

    Hi,

    Until now, https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/ has been holding 30 days
    worth of daily builds for all architectures, which needs almost 100G.

    This could be kept as is if that's desired (DSA would need to allocate a
    little more space to some hosts to make monitoring happy).

    But seeing how we managed to ship big regressions (remember cdebconf vs. gtk…) for months without noticing, I'm wondering whether 15 days
    wouldn't be sufficient anyway… Worst case, interested users could build
    any older d-i using snapshot.debian.org (see SNAPSHOT_TS), against the distribution of their choosing.

    What do you think?

    Thanks for your feedback.

    I've implemented the change, it can be revisited if we get more feedback
    and sane reasons to stick to 30 days:

    I've just reduced it from 15 to 10, since the addition of depthcharge is noticeable, and DSA asked us to see if some space could be reclaimed.

    (Temporary change & manual crontab run on dillon to remedy the situation immediately, will be committed properly later.)
