Well maint-guide is also listed twice :)
My strategy was just to get it listed where maint-guide is listed.
Otherwise, it might make sense to drop the whole 'If you want to start
developing packages for Debian we recommend you go through:' paragraph.
Recommending to read dev-ref is kinda useless for new contributors
anyway, since it's mostly about procedures relevant to DDs.
