 Writing Code for GDB
 =====================
 
-   There is a lot of information about writing code for GDB in the
-internals manual, distributed with GDB in gdb/doc/gdbint.texinfo.  You
-can read it by hand, print it by using TeX and texinfo, or process it
-into an `info' file for use with Emacs' info mode or the standalone
-`info' program.
+   There is information about writing code for GDB in the file
+`CONTRIBUTE' and at the website:
+
+       http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/
+
+in particular in the wiki.

 planning to work on something, or at least well ahead of when you
