Dead links don't help anybody, so I've applied this.  I have to wonder,
though, whether there is really value in carrying around a link to a page
that hasn't been maintained in years.  Almost everything that appears
there is already in submitting-patches.rst; maybe we could see if there's
anything that's missing, add it, then drop the link?

Thanks,

jon
