@subheading We need you!
-The LilyPond development team is quite small; we really want to
-get more people involved. Please consider helping your fellow
-LilyPond users by contributing!
+Thank you for your interest in helping us --- we would love to see
+you get involved! Your contribution will help a large group of users
+make beautifully typeset music.
Even working on small tasks can have a big impact: taking care of
them allows experienced developers work on advanced tasks, instead
of spending time on those simple tasks.
+For a multi-faceted project like LilyPond, sometimes it's tough to know
+where to begin. In addition to the avenues proposed below, you can send
+an e-mail to the
+@uref{https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel, lilypond-devel@@gnu.org}
+mailing list, and we'll help you to get started.

-The Frogs are ordinary LilyPond users who have chosen to get
-involved in their favorite software's development. Fixing bugs,
-implementing new features, documenting the source code: there's a
-lot to be done, but most importantly: this is a chance for
-everyone to learn more about LilyPond, about Free Software, about
-programming... and to have fun. If you're curious about any of
-it, then the word is: @emph{Join the Frogs!}
