[Evergreen-general] Link Checker

[Andrea Buntz Neiman]

Jennifer, thanks for sharing the link to the Angular Link Checker project!
We will be starting that in the new year.

Elizabeth, I can confirm that as part of that project we will be updating
the community documentation for Link Checker.

Best,
Andrea
