This updates the article at:

Lucent Certifications for Not Yet Techies

Lucent has either discontinued or chosen to actively hide
their certification program. I searched through the company's
site and could find nothing on it. Other certification
sites, purportedly more on top of things than I pretend
to be, list their program as active -- but the links to
the company's certification pages are broken.

If Lucent had simply reorganized their site, the old
links should still redirect to the new ones. Plus
the site search engine should come up with them.

But neither is true, so forget Lucent certifications.
