<br>
Just joined the mailing list (as I will no doubt be calling on the<br>
community's expertise in the near future). I am looking to get my<br>
hands dirty with some kernel development - mainly because I want to<br>
improve my understanding of the kernel and I honestly believe that<br>
getting involved will be a worthwhile investment of my time and will<br>
also be highly educational.<br>
<br>
Over the next coming months, I shall be undertaking a more structured<br>
approach to studying and gaining familiarity with the kernel source.<br>
I will also be looking to get involved in some simple patch<br>
development (e.g., simple janitorial type jobs), such that I can gain<br>
some experience of the patch development and submission process. I am<br>
aware that <a href="http://kernelnewbies.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">kernelnewbies.org</a> typically lists some of these types of<br>
job and that the kernel project has plenty of documentation and tips<br>
from veteran contributors concerning these topics.<br>
<br>
Areas of particular interest to me include:<br>
- Industrial I/O<br>
- Device Driver Development<br>
- 'Real-Time' Systems<br>
- Time Synchronisation<br>
- Networking & Communication Protocols<br>
<br>
If anyone knows of any newbie projects in these specific areas, then<br>
it would be great to hear from you.<br>
<br>
Lastly, the Kernel Newbies website seems to be unavailable at the<br>
moment (Google last cached the site on 31 Jan 2020 01:49:1 UTC). Any<br>
idea when it will be available again?<br>
<br></blockquote><div>Rik maintains the website, I think. <br></div><div>ccing him for an answer. <br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
Many Thanks,<br>
