A lot simpler is that Infineon subscribes to brcm80211@lists.linux.dev
list, that way there's just one list for all communication. And actually
broadcom could do the same?

I'll also fix the linux-wireless list address, it was wrong originally.

For brcm80211 activity related notification, the brcm80211@lists.linux.dev
list seems sufficient. But in addition, more importantly, for the people in
the community having queries specifically regarding the Infineon WLAN
chipset support, it would be helpful to have this E-Mail Distribution list,
So they can notify and communicate with the Infineon WLAN Kernel DEV team.

You can add that to your documentation or website.
