dead link in Fedora documentation

[Linda Riewe]

Hello,

I was on this page

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/en/sn-using-repositories.html

It said:

Fedora Extras Repositories for Previous Versions of Fedora Core
You must manually configure Fedora Core 3 systems to use Fedora Extras, using the instructions at http://fedora.redhat.com/projects/extras/.

The extras link didn't work.

Hi, and thanks for reporting this.  I reported a but about this a while
ago (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=249434)-
I'm familiar with the documentation team's process/procedures, but
hopefully, the right people should know about it (feel free to comment
on the bug/ask the documentation team more about this).

Thanks,
Ricky

Thanks, Linda, for sending us word about this broken link.  There isn't
anyone in Fedora maintaining content for those versions of Fedora Core,
so I removed the reference.

Cheers - Karsten
