Additional advertising for the gmane NNTP server makes sense
from a robustness standpoint:
nntp://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.unicorn.general
Not advertising other HTTP-based URLs just yet. They could contain
images/frames/JS/CSS and add unnecessary clutter to the footer.
NNTP puts the client in control of UI.

* add nntp_url to the olddoc website footer
* update legacy support status for 4.x (not 4.8.x)
* update copyright range to 2016
* note all of our development tools are Free Software, too
* remove cgit mention; it may not always be cgit
(but URLs should remain compatible).
* discourage downloading snapshot tarballs;
"git clone" + periodic "git fetch" is more efficient
* remove most mentions of unicorn_rails as that
was meant for ancient Rails 1.x/2.x users
* update path reference to Ruby 2.3.0
* fix nginx upstream module link to avoid redirect
* shorten Message-ID example to avoid redirects
and inadvertant linkage

wrongdoc was difficult to maintain because of the tidy-ffi
dependency and the HTML5 changes in Darkfish could not be
handled well by Tidy.
olddoc is superior as it generates leaner HTML which loads faster,
requires less scrolling and less processing power to render.
Aesthetic comparisons are subjective of course but completely
unimportant compared to speed and accessibility.
The presence of images and CSS on the old (Darkfish-based) site
probably set unreasonable expectations as to my ability and
willingness to view such things. No more, the new website is
entirely simple HTML which renders well with even the wimpiest
browser.
