in the Readme.md:API Implementation , there are 2 urls given as below

Node.js: Node-Gratipay (also see Khan Academy's setup)

Both these are not working. Any clue what is correct one ?

@vinayakumar - Sorry about that, we just changed our name from Gittip to Gratipay a while ago, hence the broken links.

The correct links are -
http://ejohn.org/blog/gittip-at-khan-academy/
https://www.npmjs.org/package/gittip

I've fixed the Khan Academy link, I'm not sure about whether we should keep the others or not (most of them are broken). Leaving this open so that others can decide.

Are the clients themselves broken? Or are just our links broken? Are the clients broken because of the rename, or ... ?

We should fix all the links.

In what way are the clients broken? Presumably it's because of a change we made during gratipay/inside.gratipay.com#73, right? Is there something we can do on our end to fix the clients?

Well I'm not sure if they're broken or not, I just noticed that they're still using gittip.com. And that might not be a problem.

Is API versioned? I can't find a link to API at all from https://gratipay.com/about/ I actually expect something like https://gratipay.com/api/ or https://api.gratipay.com/ with actual interface and more info.

Also Colophon is a very confusing menu option. I am absolutely sure that almost no developers with English as a foreign language know this word.

Not a problem: https://www.gittip.com/rohitpaulk/public.json. Note that we expect client libraries to support 302s. See #1648.

Is API versioned?

No. What docs we have are at https://github.com/gratipay/gratipay.com#api. PRs welcome! :-)

Separate issue, please reticket if you like.

Is that still actual? The links look ok, but I am not sure about clients, which seems to be a different issue.

I take it this was about just the links on the README, not the clients themselves. README links are fixed.
