Probably trickled in, and none of it right now, just ownership of the
domain.

I realise my plan is slightly complicated, or maybe just the way I worded
it, but dumping people at the root is definitely not it! We already have a
new site up and running. Anyone who goes to nb.org should end up on it, but
then *for any link that doesn't yet exist* on it, they should end up on the
legacy site at the page requested.

The idea is meant to be to *keep* those decade of links working as is until
we decide to replace the content at that path, either with the old content
when it's donated, or something new beforehand.

Best wishes,

Neil
