Folks,
Cough! I hadn't realised, until I was about to point someone to
them, just how _very_ out-of-date the www.starlink.ac.uk web pages
were. OK, I knew they were needing a bit of TLC, and we'd been
talking about how to do it, in a fairly leisurely fashion, but `hot
news from 2004' came as a bit of a shock.
Would it be worth while for someone to spend 15 minutes to replace
the whole lot with an index.html one-liner saying `nothing here right
now, see http://www.jach.hawaii.edu/software/starlink/', and add a
rewrite rule to map all the URLs under that back to this one.
It wouldn't need logos or FAQs or anything other than a date and a
`we still exist' implication. Unless I'm very much mistaken,
the .htaccess file in the top-level directory would be just
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^* index.html
(though check that last line doesn't end up in a loop when retrieving
index.html itself)
See you,
Norman
