+Mailing tool
+------------
+
+Like many other Linux kernel subsystems, DAMON uses the mailing lists
+(damon@lists.linux.dev and linux-mm@kvack.org) as the major communication
+channel. There is a simple tool called HacKerMaiL (``hkml``) [8]_ , which is
+for people who are not very familiar with the mailing lists based
+communication. The tool could be particularly helpful for DAMON community
+members since it is developed and maintained by DAMON maintainer. The tool is
+also officially announced to support DAMON and general Linux kernel development
+workflow.
+
+In other words, ``hkml`` [8]_ is a mailing tool for DAMON community, which
+DAMON maintainer is committed to support. Please feel free to try and report
+issues or feature requests for the tool to the maintainer.
+
+Community meetup
+----------------
+
+DAMON community is maintaining two bi-weekly meetup series for community
+members who prefer synchronous conversations over mails.
+
+The first one is for any discussion between every community member. No
+reservation is needed.
+
+The seconds one is for discussions on specific topics between restricted
+members including the maintainer. The maintainer shares the available time
+slots, and attendees should reserve one of those at least 24 hours before the
+time slot, by reaching out to the maintainer.
+
+Schedules and available reservation time slots are available at the Google doc
+[9]_ . DAMON maintainer will also provide periodic reminder to the mailing
+list (damon@lists.linux.dev).
