[Utilities-announce] Legacy PubMed Web UI retirement

[utilities-announce at ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

As part of the ongoing release of the new PubMed interface, today we are beginning the process of removing the legacy Web interface for PubMed from the NCBI website. Despite the retirement of the legacy Web interface, the E-utilities will remain unchanged and will continue to support PubMed as they have done. For API users, no action is needed. We are in the early planning stages of a new RESTful API for PubMed, and will publish progress updates as they occur. We would expect any new API to function alongside the E-utility interface to PubMed for an extended time before announcing any changes to the E-utilities, and our policy is to notify the public at least six months in advance of any such changes.
