Comment:

 Matt explained why the links are gone:

 > Plugin links are a little redundant now that each plugin has a page on
 the directory. If someone has a page on their own site as well easy (and
 more effective) to link from the main content area.

 > Author links only work for single-author plugins, for multiple author
 plugins (which we want to encourage) it’s broken so better to build it off
 the commit list, so each author gets credit.
