Otoh, "community" page does not encourage subscription as a way to
ensure you'll see follow-up discussion, which may be a good thing to
add.

A tangent I just found funny is this paragraph on the "community"
page:

    The archive can be found on public-inbox. Click here to
    subscribe.

Of course clicking does not take you to a subscription page for
public-inbox, even though the two sentences appear to be related.

Perhaps swap the order of the two, like so, with a bit richer
explanation taken from Ævar's version:

	... disable HTML in your outgoing messages.

	By subscribing (click here), you can make sure you're not
	missing follow-up discussion and also learn from other
	development in the community.  The list archive can be found
	on public-inbox.
Yeah, I think that's a good suggestion. Do you want to phrase it in the
form of a patch? :)
