Sysadmin keeps an archive of all infrastructure we decommission, which this
will be included in. It will sit alongside the old akademy2010-2012 Drupal
6 sites (since made static), a backup copy of Bugzilla made prior to the
upgrade from 3.2, a backup copy of Reviewboard made prior to our transition
to Phabricator and even a copy of our CVS repository (if there is a service
we have discontinued, odds are it has ended up in the archive)

I can send you a copy of the site database and files if you'd like though.
