FWIW, my approach is to purge all changelog entries older than 2 years
the first time I touch a package in January each year. Is there any value
in having guidelines to encourage some policy in this area, so maintainer
approach it in a consistent way ?
FTR, this is done automatically by this snippet in redhat-rpm-config:
# Automatically trim changelog entries after 2 years
%_changelog_trimtime %{lua:print(os.time() - 2 * 365 * 86400)}
