I'm not sure what you're trying to fix in the readme, but the changes doesn't seem to be better than existing.

If you really want to contribute to grpc, there are other (more significant) ways you can contribute. Check with the issues and from there you can pick any good first issue or bug.

README.md Outdated
a [plugin](https://github.com/google/grpc-java/blob/master/compiler) to the
protocol-buffers compiler that generates Stub interfaces out of `.proto` files,
but bindings to other datamodel/IDL are easy and encouraged.

I don't see it as an improvement.
We also have:

The Stub layer is what is exposed to most developers and provides type-safe
bindings to whatever datamodel/IDL/interface you are adapting.

Using both 'datamodel' (no space) and 'data models' (with space) in the same paragraph is confusing. Since this is a minor stylistic change that doesn't address the broken links elsewhere, I don't think this makes it any better.

We prefer to keep markdown here, reference definitions should be on their own line (typically at the end of the file) or formatted as an inline link: [the JARs](https://...).

We would like to keep clickable links. Your update changes these to plain text, which makes it harder for users to navigate to those resources.

Thank you for the feedback @shivaspeaks
I understand. I was trying to improve the README formatting, but I see that the current version is already appropriate.
I'll look through the issues and try to work on a good first issue or bug instead.
I have fixed the file according to your instructions.
