Hello Kernel Janitors,
My Name is Vineet and I am trying understand and learn linux kernel. I
read the kernel newbie documents. I have built and poked around the
code around a bit.
I will like to contribute to Kernel Janitor to-do list. I am not sure
what is pending and what is being done. Could someone point me to
current to-do list and some pointers to get started as kernel janitor?
Regards,
Vineet

It's all obsolete... Find a driver in staging and start hacking on it
randomly.

Hello Dan,
Thanks for letting me know. Is this the staging drivers you are
talking about -https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/drivers/staging
?
Regards,
Vineet
