[GNC] Gnucash - user

[Adrien Monteleone]

I just added an explicit instruction in the Mailing List Membership section of https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists directing readers to https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo, click the desired list, and fill out the “Subscribing to” form.

I would have added annotated screenshots for additional clarity, but it seems I don’t have upload privileges. The text should be pretty clear anyway.

I can see that not having this direction in that section seemed to leave one hanging as to exactly how to ‘join’ after explaining ‘why one should'. (the next section immediately talks of ‘unsubscribing’ though it isn’t much of a leap to figure things out)

Regards,
Adrien
