Hi guys, setting the linking and appearance schedule simply removes the link, not the already published page. It is a known bug.
I like Neil's idea, but one would have to maintain an extra foundation. Another solution would be to create an archive section off of the start page or a section that outside the home page. This section of would have a publication package that uses a publishing target that point to another webserver or location or even the local directory on CMS. Attach archived pages there. Now, archive pages publishes to B and regular pages goes to A. Oh, makes sure when you attach the archived pages, they are disconnected from the rest of the site (pages with multiple connections?). Also, manually delete any links within text editor or anc references that links this page, else the link will point to a path that is not reachable.
