Legacy websites

The ex-departmental web servers (of DCS, DAI and CogSci) would, in an ideal world, just die off. However, some legacy URLs appear in journals etc, so in order not to break those links, the old sites have been kept going (but usually just to redirect people to newer equivalent content).

We will periodically review the need to keep providing these legacy web servers.

The services were moved from the respective departmental hardware to current DICE hardware, so some old CGIs and other web configuration may not be supported on the current DICE setup.
