Sorry for hijacking this topic.
I have read the suggestions about occasional retraining.
Is it possible to automate this? Because I have only found docs that
talks about manually doing that.

I was thinking about running a cron job that dumps all training data,
except the training data for the last X days.
Is this possible and if yes, how?
