It is good pointer. I have not seen it before. > Maybe gdb/CONTRIBUTE could mention this wiki page. OOC, how did you find gdb/CONTRIBUTE? Was that through https://sourceware.org/gdb/contribute/ or some other means? IMO we should just move/merge the gross of the contents in the file to the web/wiki, and either delete the file, or leave just the preamble. If it stays, I think it should link to: http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/contribute/ as that's more stable than the wiki, and then that page should link to relevant wiki pages. Thanks, Pedro Alves
