It would be good to have the basics as part of that mail, or a pointer to some location where the basics are described. Currently, one has to hunt a little bit to find something like http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/pipermail/kernelnewbies/2012-April/005178.html It would be good if that info was either part of the template mail or at a stable URL whose content is kept up to date. (I'm willing to write and host such a page, if for some reason you don't want to, but I'd like someone to confirm it's accurate.)
