I am against removing this paragraph.

Thank you for the review, Carl Eugen.
Two questions for you.
1. Do you expect all contributors to ffmpeg to subscribe to the
ffmpeg-cvslog email list /in addition to/ the ffmpeg-devel list? Even
those who only want to contribute a bug fix or two, participate in
review discussion, then leave?
2. Instead of /removing/ that paragraph, are you also against replacing
it with the same paragraph but centred on the ffmpeg-devel list? The
patch has the following alternative:
+@section Documentation/Other
+@subheading Subscribe to the ffmpeg-devel mailing list.
+It is important to be subscribed to the
+@uref{https://lists.ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel, ffmpeg-devel}
+mailing list, because any patch you contribute must be sent there
+and reviewed by the other developers. They may have comments about your
+contribution. We expect you see those comments, and to improve your
contribution
+if requested.
+Also, this list is where bugs and possible improvements or
+general questions regarding commits are discussed. That may be helpful
+information as you write your contribution. Finally, by being a list
+subscriber your contribution will be posted immediately to the list,
+without the moderation hold which messages from non-subscribers
experience.
Thanks,
