[Slashcode-development] older_stories_max?

[shane <sh...@lo...>]

 From the upgrades file:

# Leaving this set to 0 will allow the current behavior of showing  
whatever leftover stories are left from the select for the main  
column of the index
# Changing this value to something positive will limit the number  
showing up in the Older Stories Slashbox
ALTER TABLE skins ADD COLUMN older_stories_max MEDIUMINT UNSIGNED  
DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL;

I'm curious as to why this was needed?
