Hi All,
=20
I am not sure when I joined this mailing list. Probably after I became a
fan of mercurial and started poking around selenic's website. I am sure
I haven't received any mails from this mailing list for a looong time.
=20
How did you guys get to know about this mailing list?
=20
Are there any moderators? Can you please post some general guidelines on
the topics to be discussed in this mailing list?
=20
As for Vengatesh's question, go to kernel.org website and read through
it. The Linux kernel is a vast piece of code and would be really
difficult to handle until you get familiar with first using Linux on
your PC. Dreaming of contributing to the Linux kernel may be a far
fetched, but you might get there if you have the perseverance.
=20
You might also try reading some books on kernel driver development.
=20
regards,
arun
