I have noticed that some people have used "SC1 Legacy" for SC2 remakes of an SC1 map. I'm not sure that's appropriate (though, it's the mods/admins call). I was offered recently to host my campaign on a different site, I was not very fond of this idea as it would spread me thin. I promised to think about it, though. However, this bothered me, and IMO, the "Legacy" categories are NOT being used properly.
When I came here, I was led by Sixen to get more testers here for my campaign. So, he set up new categories: The Legacies ones: SC1, War3, and of course, the Blizzard Legacy icon which says Non-SC2 maps (to paraphrase). So, that's what there for! Really, in my opinion, even though this is sc2mapster, since the categories are there, we should NOT be excluding Starcraft 1 maps just because this is an SC2 site. I think any map from a Starcraft game should be fair game here. A campaign even.
That's my thoughts on the matter, and what I think. The mods/admins can override me on this, but that's what I believe "Legacy" should be used for: not remakes.

I agree, someone has a War3 map remake, and says its a legacy. I get what you mean. :D Enjoy the beta!
Thanks for supporting me. :) Anyone else's thoughts?

ModeratorsNo worries Aegis, we're in the process of redoing all the categories, so things will be fixed in the update, :).
Thanks, man. :) I just think that if those categories are there, we might as well host SC1 campaigns/maps.
