I would be cautious choosing a year to do this but pick a period a little longer.
In the UK we have a number of series which run once a year but can be delayed e.g. when
rugby/football/cricket/tiddlywinks world cups occur, olympics, etc. Sometimes I am surprised when a
new program pops up from an old rule I had totally forgotten about.
So, I like the idea, there is definitely cruft in my rules table which has to be cleaned every so
often but an extra slice of caution will help.
