  Hy,

  As written on footer of
<URL:http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/beginner.html>, I address you this
mail, I hope I don't make a mistake.

  On the above page, there is a broken link, in section
"Documentation".  The link is named "The GNU Compiler Writer's Jump
Point" and point to <URL:http://members.wri.com/johnnyb/compilers/>,
which results on a 404 HTTP error.  I found
<URL:http://www.eskimo.com/~johnnyb/computers/toy/>, which I think is
the same (same title and same site owner username in the URL).

  Hope it helps.

  Regards,

--drkm

Now, it's perfectly fine.

We already have the (correct) link on our readings.html page, so I think
it's best to remove the redundancy.

Thanks for letting us know!

Gerald

Remove broken link to johnnyb's page, which is already linked from
readings.html.
