Is there a cutoff date that would cover maybe 90% of your use cases?  I
think that one year would be too short for my use cases as well.  But there
are packages in the distro with changelogs going back to the RHL/fedora.us
days and I personally never go back even half that far.  If we chose a date
two years or three years or even four years in the past, it might be a
reasonable compromise for everyone.
