Releases which have been extensively tested, QA'ed and declared "current" are not "ordinary" and can be retained for longer periods of time. If you feel particular attachment to a release that is being removed, you always have the option of
importing that release to your local disk area. However, please keep in mind that release removal is part of the Release Coordinator's responsibility. He/she is asked to remove old releases to (1) stay within a reasonable disk space budget, and (2) keep
release management under control.
