It would be useful to provide a way for a single person to quickly
subscribe to multiple lists.

An example of this is for new participants in Outreachy and GSoC.

There could be a few different ways that people interact with this:

- on the web site, provide check boxes next to the list names, the user
can choose multiple check boxes and be subscribed with a single
confirmation email

- somebody (e.g. a GSoC mentor) can construct a URL that contains the
names of multiple lists and send that URL to people through email or by
placing the URL in the wiki.  When somebody clicks the URL, they see a
list of the mailing lists they are going to join and they are asked to
enter the email address they want to subscribe with.

That appears to do half of what is being suggested

Where is the source for that page?  There is only a generic link to
https://www.debian.org/devel/website/using_cvs

Does it take URL parameters to select some of the lists?

Would the email address be better at the top of the page?

Daniel
