Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: maintainer: Improve grammar in mailing list participation section
Date: Tue,  3 Sep 2024 11:19:25 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <SJ2P223MB1026BD1839CFD474395FACDEF7932@SJ2P223MB1026.NAMP223.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM> (raw)

In the section "Mailing list participation", the first few
lines had grammatical errors and overall was not clear. I
fixed this by adding "The" before "Linux kernel" and
specifying that the mailing list is for developers.
