 o	Coding Standards
 
 	All contributions must conform to the GNU Coding Standard.
-	http://www.gnu.ai.mit.edu/prep/standards_toc.html
 	Submissions which do not conform to the standards will be
 	returned with a request to reformat the changes.
 
-	For GDB, that standard is more tightly defined. GDB's
-	coding standard is determined by the output of
-	gnu-indent.
+	GDB has certain additional coding requirements.  Those
+	requirements are explained in the GDB internals documentation
+	in the gdb/doc directory.
 
-	This situation came about because, by the start of '99,
-	GDB's coding style was so bad an inconsistent that it was
-	decided to restart things from scratch.

 o	Copyright Assignment
 
-	There are certain legal requirements 
-
 	Before we can accept code contributions from you, we need a
-	copyright assignment form filled out.
-
-	If you've developed some addition or patch to GDB that you
-	would like to contribute, you should fill out a copyright
-	assignment form and send it in to the FSF. We are unable to
-	use code from you until this is on-file at the FSF, so get
-	that paperwork in!  This form covers one batch of changes.
-	Ref: http://gcc.gnu.org/fsf-forms/assignment-instructions.html
-
-	If you think you're going to be doing continuing work on GDB, it
-	would be easier to use a different form, which arranges to
-	assign the copyright for all your future changes to GDB. It is
-	called assign.future. Please note that if you switch
-	employers, the new employer will need to fill out the
-	disclaim.future form; there is no need to fill out the
-	assign.future form again.
-	Ref: http://gcc.gnu.org/fsf-forms/assign.future
-	Ref: http://gcc.gnu.org/fsf-forms/disclaim.future
-
-	There are several other forms you can fill out for different
-	circumstances (e.g. to contribute an entirely new program, to
-	contribute significant changes to a manual, etc.)
-	Ref: http://gcc.gnu.org/fsf-forms/copyrights.html
-
-	Small changes can be accepted without a copyright assignment
-	form on file.
-
-	This is pretty confusing! If you are unsure of what is
-	necessary, just ask the GDB mailing list and we'll figure out
-	what is best for you.
-
-	Note: Many of these forms have a place for "name of
-	program". Insert the name of one program in that place -- in
-	this case, "GDB".
+	copyright assignment form filled out and filed with the FSF.

+	See some documentation by the FSF for details and contact us
+	(either via the GDB mailing list or the GDB maintainer that is
+	taking care of your contributions) to obtain the relevant
+	forms.
