+ <description>
+ ownCloud keeps a copy of your deleted files in case you need them again.
+ To make sure that the user doesn't run out of memory the deleted files app
+ manages the size of the deleted files for the user. By default deleted files
+ stay in the trash bin for 180 days. ownCloud checks the age of the files
+ every time a new files gets moved to the deleted files and remove all files
+ older than 180 days. The user can adjust this value in the config.php by
+ setting the "trashbin_retention_obligation" value.
+
+ Beside that the delted files app take care to never use more that 50% of
+ your currently available free space. If your deleted files exceed this limit
+ ownCloud deletes the oldest versions until it meets the memory usage limit
+ again.

- <description>Versioning of files</description>
+ <description>
+ ownCloud supports simple version control for files. The versioning app
+ expires old versions automatically to make sure that
+ the user doesn't run out of space. Following pattern is used to delete
+ old versions:
+ For the first 10 seconds ownCloud keeps one version every 2 seconds;
+ For the first hour ownCloud keeps one version every minute;
+ For the first 24 hours ownCloud keeps one version every hour;
+ For the first 30 days ownCloud keeps one version every day;
+ After the first 30 days ownCloud keeps one version every week.
+
+ The versions are adjusted along this pattern every time a new version gets
+ created.
+
+ Beside that the version app takes care to never use more that 50% of the users
+ currently available free space. If the stored versions exceed this limit
+ ownCloud deletes the oldest versions until it meets the memory usage limit
+ again.
