lastinstitution-cookie should not persist till 2040-12-31

[Stefan Wilhelm]

There is no reason to keep information about the last institution stored in the browser for years. Please use an adequate time span in file auth/user.php:

"set_cookie('lastinstitution', $this->sitepages_institutionname_by_theme('loggedouthome'), '2240561472', true);"

What would be an adequate time frame? 1 year? 6 months?

[Stefan Wilhelm (wilhelm-g)]

I think one year should be maximum.

[Kristina Hoeppner (kris-hoeppner)]

One year sounds like a reasonable time frame.
