(sent previously with wrong email address; oops)

I was chatting with someone on IRC about mailing lists, and it wasn't really obvious to them how to find out what mailing lists there are.

Community -> Quick Links -> Mailing Lists gets to /list/ which does provide a list of mailing lists, but it's as links to the archives and it's "below the fold".

The more obvious link from the front page - "maiing lists" in the mailing lists tile - goes to lists.postgresql.org, which isn't the best entry point, *especially* if you're not already logged in to a community account.

Making the first link in the mailing lists tile go to /list/ would be an easy improvement, I think. A page that has the list names and descriptions, along with "archive" and "subscribe" buttons would be better still (that page may exist, but if it does I can't find it).

Cheers,
Steve
