I was looking at pages like https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/MailingLists and https://wiki.qemu.org/License ... but yes, the first one should be likely moved to docs/devel, too, and the second one is maybe redundant anyway, since we have this information in the LICENSE file already (so we could also link to https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=blob_plain;f=LICENSE instead).
