I was thinking more along the lines of the way archiving works already,
but instead of moving the whole heading, a copy of the heading plus the
old logs would be made in the archive file, and the old logs would be
deleted from the original file, i.e.
gtd.org:
,-----------------------------------------------------------------
| * Make tea
| :LOGBOOK:
| CLOCK: [2012-08-24 Fri 13:05]--[2012-08-24 Fri 13:40] => 0:35
| :END:
| :OLDLOGS:
| CLOCK: [2011-12-23 Fri 12:45]--[2011-12-23 Fri 13:16] => 0:31
| :END:
`-----------------------------------------------------------------
would become
gtd.org:
,-----------------------------------------------------------------
| * Make tea
| :LOGBOOK:
| CLOCK: [2012-08-24 Fri 13:05]--[2012-08-24 Fri 13:40] => 0:35
| :END:
`-----------------------------------------------------------------
gtd.org_archive:
,-----------------------------------------------------------------
| * Make tea
| :OLDLOGS:
| CLOCK: [2011-12-23 Fri 12:45]--[2011-12-23 Fri 13:16] => 0:31
