[PATCH 2/3] Documentation: user: intro: add more info about mailing list

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We don't actually list the mailing list address, just a link to
mailman.

The link to the Linux kernel patch submission guide should also be
located here and not only in the README.

Finally, a reference to the Github Actions is also appropriate.
