-
Link to other resources instead of inlining their information
The other places are more accurate and up-to-date. - Link to `std-dev-guide` in CONTRIBUTING.md Thom and Mara said the guide is in reasonably good shape, and it's tailored more closely to people working on the standard library. - Link to CONTRIBUTING.md instead of rustc-dev-guide in the main readme CONTRIBUTING.md has more information and also links the std-dev-guide. - Link to forge for the list of tested platforms; the one in the readme was hopelessly out of date.
-
