[Brian J. Murrell]

If I look at what is scheduled to expire on my 0.27-fixes BE I find:

Amongst which I find a few oddities.

 * Lower priority recordings (i.e. -5) are being expired before higher
   priority recordings (i.e. 0)
 * Newer recordings are being deleted before older recordings

Why are the above decisions in ordering being made?

The above are all Deleted recordings, BTW, so in that measure (i.e.
deleted or not) are of equal priority.

Cheers,
