I'll probably update my practice to also include maintainers via --cc to `git send-email`.
Up until now, I would send emails to lists [as much as possible] and try to not include people directly.
My assumption was that the list is enough.

I'm still adjusting to how things get done in the various Linux kernel subsystems/subgroups.
