WIMBY will be missed - a great resource, easy to use. It's like an old friend.
Surely an entity like CLAIRE is a way forward for preserving WIMBY for at least some time into the future.
Just get the EA to hand over the 'antiquated software' and get CLAIRE to host it (or the most useful bits) on the web as a 'frozen-in-time' snapshot.
Or perhaps MAGIC could assimilate some of the mapping data easily?
