Historic may give the impression it is NOT used or no longer used.
Maybe we can move it to "INFORMATIONAL". We do not have a category
of "good enough"... and as far as I can tell INFORMATIONAL comes
closest to "good enough".

When moving to HISTORIC you need do nothing.
When moving to INFORMATIONAL, you may have to add things like
security section and such.
