We need to add a banner to the archive site that says something along the lines of "This content is stale, don't look or you'll burn your eyes out."

Need to come up with better text, of course...
Proposed text: "You are currently viewing a snapshot of mozilla.org taken on April 21, 2008. This snapshot is considered highly out of date and exists for historical purposes only."

Thoughts?
Sounds good.  Should we also add information about how someone can contact us if they think something from the archive site should be added back to the production site?  Maybe a line like -- "If there are any pages on this archive site that you think should be added back to www.mozilla.org, please <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/contact">contact us</a>."
Probably, yeah. Now to come up with the actual banner...

I think you need to be clearer that the content is much more out of date than the April 21, 2008.
I also think we need to add a comment saying that if this content actually belongs on www.mozilla.org then that should be reported so we can move it back.
Agreed.  The banner needs to make it clear that some of the content is
painfully, horrifyingly out of date.  And explaining how to get the content back is a good idea too.

Here's the text that I've checked in that's not showing up yet:

<p class="important">You are currently viewing a snapshot of www.mozilla.org taken on April 21, 2008. The content on this site is highly out of date (some pages haven't been updated since the project began in 1998) and exists for historical purposes only.  If there are any pages on this archive site that you think should be added back to www.mozilla.org, please <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/contact">contact us</a>.</p>

Feel free to suggest changes (maybe we put to Bugzilla instead of the contact page?)
Yeah, I think we should point to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ and mark the link "file a bug against www.mozilla.org".

I've updated the note to point people to bugzilla instead of the contact page.

I've added a banner to all templates and the home page.  If there are any pages where the banner isn't showing up or if there are any changes to the banner text that need to be made, feel free to reopen this bug.
