Arguably there's no useful current information wrt reporting bugs at the updated URL either.

A lot of information in there is rather outdated indeed, however it does contain explanation how to subscribe/unsubscribe to LKML (or rather "why you shouldn't").

Would you prefer to get rid of the link completely?
The current one is dead since late 2016 (so it doesn't seem it will come back)

Thanks,
Ramunas

I'll go ahead and apply the patch for now; an old link is better than a dead one, methinks. All of this documentation needs a deeper cleaning and redo, of course...

Thanks,
