[Expire-rules]

I just had some tests, and got to this file. Im not sure if it will
work as I intend it to. So if you guys could have a quick look? ;-)

All images that are created on a sunday or monday (where the chance
that I will boot my machine is the biggest) will be kept for 1 month,
all others will be kept for two weeks.

Additionally all sunday/monday-files that are created in the first
week of a month are kept for one year.

As far as I understood it should also work if my machine should not be
booted for more than 2 weeks. Right?

Thanks,
OJ
