Personally I'd keep this section in the README since it's more likely to get viewed.
I think the chance of people clicking a link in the README is pretty low.

I removed it from the README.md and added it to the website and CONTRIBUTING.md instead. The reason is that when you create an issue, you have a clickable link to CONTRIBUTING.md. And when you're looking for documentation, you'll first go to the website and not to the github repo.
