Message-ID: <20040521201011.D8524-100000@attu4.cs.washington.edu> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello, Up to now, I've been reading up on various outside sources about the structure of the Linux kernel, as well as following the discussions on this list. Though so far I've only had experience at writing userland programs on *nixes, I've acquired a curiosity for the overall structure of the kernel, the algorithms it uses, and its evolution over time. Though I know the theory behind operating systems in general, I'd like to get some hands-on practice. For this reason, I am curious if a list of pending TODOs/projects relating to the kernel or drivers is maintained anywhere, such that I could pick a simple one to try to work on, for starters. After all, the best way to learn is to dive right in. :) Thanks in advance, Vadim Lobanov.
