[v2,0/2] Documentation: update information for mailing lists

Message

Konstantin Ryabitsev June 19, 2024, 6:24 p.m. UTC

There have been some important changes to the mailing lists hosted at
kernel.org, most importantly that vger.kernel.org was migrated from
majordomo+zmailer to mlmmj and is now being served from the unified
mailing list platform called "subspace" [1].

This series updates many links pointing at obsolete locations, but also
makes the following changes:

- drops the recommendation to use /r/ subpaths in lore.kernel.org links
(it has been unnecessary for a number of years)
- adds some detail on how to reference specific Link trailers from
inside the commit message

Some of these changes are the result of discussions on the ksummit
mailing list [2].

I prefer 'origin'over 'provenance'as well. My Ack/R-b from version 1
still stands.
