 Now, the options of the revisions are:

     true (default), -1: store every revision
     false, 0: do not store any revisions (except the one autosave per
 post)
     (int) > 0: store that many revisions (+1 autosave) per post. Old
 revisions are automatically deleted.


 What about to have expiration by time also, not just with number. In that
 way, in big multisite installations, old revisions could desappear after X
 months. Decreasing the size of the database.

 Normally, if a post have not modifications after 1 year, is because not
 longer are necesary. Anyway, it would be a choice of the
 superadministrator of the installation.

 thanks
