Thanks.

My comment is that the references to documentation (e.g., the coding
standards) are to the Web pages, not to Info manuals.  I think the
file should at least mention the Info manuals as well, if not
exclusively.

Also, when you talk about ChangeLog entries, I think you should point
to the relevant part of standards.texi.

The method of marking changes in NEWS with "+++" and "---" should be
mentioned, IMO, as well as FOR-RELEASE (and the files in admin/ in
general).

Finally, there should be a reference to a couple of nodes in the ELisp
manual, such as "Tips" and "GNU Emacs Internals".  For example, the
last lines of CONTRIBUTE mention just one of the tips in the "Tips"
node.
