It's a wiki, so anyone else can make further edits, but I added words to
both of these pages today.
One page I cannot edit (since I'm not a list moderator), but which would
also be good to modify, is the actual list information page:
https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
[List moderators - you may be interested in how libvirt does it:
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
the trick is to fill in the 'Info' box on the mailman admin General
Options page]
