+Name
+ Mail - instructions for sending email to the project
+
+Description
+ The main discussions regarding development of the project,
+ patches, bugs, news, doubts, etc. happen on the mailing list.
+ To send an email to the project, send it to Alejandro and CC the
+ mailing list:
+
+ To: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>
+ Cc: <linux-man@vger.kernel.org>
+
+ Please CC any relevant developers and mailing lists that may know
+ about or be interested in the discussion. If your email
+ discusses a feature or change, and you know which developers
+ added the feature or made the change that your email discusses,
+ please CC them on the email; with luck they may review and
+ comment on it. If you don't know who the developers are, you may
+ be able to discover that information from mailing list archives
+ or from git(1) logs or logs in other version control systems.
+ Obviously, if you are the developer of the feature being
+ discussed in a man-pages email, please identify yourself as such.
+ Relevant mailing lists may include:
+
+ Cc: LKML <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org>
+ Cc: Linux API <linux-api@vger.kernel.org>
+ Cc: Glibc <libc-alpha@sourceware.org>
+
+ For other kernel mailing lists and maintainers, check the
+ <MAINTAINERS> file in the Linux kernel repository.
+
+ Please don't send HTML email; it will be discarded by the list.
+
+ Archives:
+ <https://lore.kernel.org/linux-man/>
+ <https://marc.info/?l=linux-man>
+
+ Subscription:
+ It is not necessary to subscribe to the list to send an
+ email. For subscribing to the list, or information about
+ it, go to
+ <https://subspace.kernel.org/vger.kernel.org.html>.
+
+ Sign your emails with PGP
+ We encourage that you sign all of your emails sent to the
+ mailing list, (especially) including the ones containing
+ patches, with your PGP key. This helps establish trust between
+ you and other contributors of this project, and prevent others
+ impersonating you. If you don't have a key, it's not mandatory
+ to sign your email, but you're encouraged to create and start
+ using a PGP key. See also:
+ <https://www.gnupg.org/faq/gnupg-faq.html#use_pgpmime>
+
+ There are many ways you can sign your patches, and it depends on
+ your preferred tools. You can use neomutt(1) (>= 20240201) as a
+ driver for git-send-email(1). In <~/.gitconfig>, add the
+ following section:
+
+ [sendemail]
+ sendmailcmd = neomutt -C -H - && true
