Xen Project Application | Outreachy

[Pallavi]

Hi, Lars.

I'm Pallavi V G, a second year undergrad majoring in CS from India.
I went through the community landing page of Xen Project and found this
project that I would like to contribute on- Xen on ARM: create multiple
guests from device tree.
I have taken a course on C during my second semester and am currently
taking a course on Operating Systems and Computer Architecture this
semester. 
I went through the mailing list https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/h
tml/xen-devel/2018-02/ and looked through the mails tagged outreach.
I am beginner in hypervisors and ARM but I'm willing to learn.
How can I get started on this project? Are there any prerequisites need
other than C?
Also how should I communicate with the mentors?

I found a few links on the mailing list

I will read through them in the meanwhile.
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Yours Sincerly
