-We always need more help improving Octave and there are many ways
-you can contribute.  You can help by fixing bugs, developing new
-features, answering questions on the mailing list or IRC channel,
-helping to improve the web pages.
-
-If you are wondering what to work on, we have a standard answer:
-what would you like to work on?  We try not to tell contributors
-what to work on as most people do their best work when they are
-within their own field of interest.  So, we would love your help,
-but would also love for you to work on what you love.
-
-If you need some inspiration, we do maintain a
-<a href="http://www.octave.org/wiki/Projects">list of possible projects</a>
-on the Wiki.
-
-If you have an idea on what to contribute, then join the
-maintainers mailing list and discuss your ideas there.  That way
-others can provide input early on, which makes your contribution
-more likely to get accepted.
-
-
-## Contacting developers
-
-If you want to participate in Octave development, you should join
-the <a href="https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/octave-maintainers">
-<code>maintainers@octave.org</code></a> mailing list.  <b>Please
-use this list only if you are participating in Octave's
-development.</b>  If you are looking for help in using Octave,
-please use the <a href="https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-octave"><code>help@octave.org</code></a>
-list instead, or check out other <a href="support.html">support
-options</a>.
-
-For sometimes faster communication, you can also chat in IRC
-in <code>#octave</code> in Freenode. Note, however, that the primary
-medium for development talk is the mailing list.
-
-
-## Using the Development Sources
-
-The latest development sources of Octave are also available via
-<a href="http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki">Mercurial</a> (hg)
-archive.
-
-The primary archive address
-is <a href="http://www.octave.org/hg/octave">http://www.octave.org/hg/octave</a>,
-which currently redirects
-to <a href="http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave">http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave</a>.
-
-If you decide to use the development sources from the Mercurial
-archive, please read the
-file <a href="http://www.octave.org/hg/octave/file/tip/etc/HACKING"><code>etc/HACKING</code></a>
-that is available with the source files.
-
-Assuming you have Mercurial and git installed on your machine you
-may obtain the latest development version of Octave sources with
-the following command:
-
-{% highlight text %}
-hg clone http://www.octave.org/hg/octave
-{% endhighlight %}
-
-This will clone <em>two</em> repositories, one of which is
-subrepository of the main Octave repository. Once you have these,
-you can resync with the archive by doing
-
-{% highlight text %}
-hg -v pull
-hg -v update
-{% endhighlight %}
-
-The `-v` option is not required but provides extra information
-about what was pulled and updated.  The Octave manual has more
-information about <a href="doc/interpreter/Contributing-Guidelines.html#Contributing-Guidelines">contributing
-to Octave's development</a>.
-
-
-## Octave Forge
-
-The community-developed [Octave-Forge][forge] packages expand Octave's core
-functionality by providing field specific features via Octave's package system.
-For example, image and signal processing, fuzzy logic, instrument control,
-and statistics packages are examples of individual Octave-Forge packages.
