That also doesn't make much sense as patches
should not be applied that have not reached
a mailing list for review.

As long as initial outreachy patches are not
applied and are just for internal review by
any outside person but the outreachy list and
are not be applied by maintainers, then perhaps
it's best if neither maintainers nor lists are
cc'd on the patches.

And the link you sent is for newbies, not for
outreachy.

The "don't cc lists" --nol use is inappropriate
there.
