Instructions for subscribing to the email list

[Julian Hyde <jh...@apache.org>]

I just received (as dev-owner@quickstep.apache.org <ma...@quickstep.apache.org>) a request to join dev@quickstep.apache.org <ma...@quickstep.apache.org>. I wondered why the person had not figured out how to subscribe, so I checked:

1. The instructions on the page http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/quickstep-dev/ <http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/quickstep-dev/> are correct; however

2. When I google “subscribe apache quickstep” that page doesn’t come up in the top 10, and

3. That page is not listed as the official archive at http://quickstep.apache.org/ <http://quickstep.apache.org/>. Rather, that page lists https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@quickstep.incubator.apache.org/ <https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@quickstep.incubator.apache.org/> as the archive, but the official apache archives https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-quickstep-dev/ <https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-quickstep-dev/> or https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@quickstep.apache.org <ht...@quickstep.apache.org> would probably be better.

4. The instructions on http://quickstep.apache.org/ <http://quickstep.apache.org/>, "Send a blank email to [ dev@quickstep.apache.org <ma...@quickstep.apache.org> ]  for subscribe instructions” are wrong.

Can someone make a pass over the doc and make it easier to join the community?
