-## Helpful Links and Information
-
-For people new to Rust, and just starting to contribute, or even for
-more seasoned developers, some useful places to look for information
-are:
-
-* The [Rust Internals forum][rif], a place to ask questions and
-  discuss Rust's internals
-* The [generated documentation for rust's compiler][gdfrustc]
-* The [rust referance][rr], even though it doesn't specifically talk about Rust's internals, its a great reasource nontheless
-* Although out of date, [Tom Lee's great blog article][tlgba] is very helpful
-* [rustaceans.org][ro] is helpful, but mostly dedicated to IRC
-* The [Rust Compiler Testing Docs][rctd]
-* For @bors, [this cheetsheat][cheetsheat] is helpful (Remember to replace `@homu` with `@bors` in the commands that you use.)
-* **Google**!
-* Don't be afraid to ask! The Rust community is friendly and helpful.
