To be fair, my first real code experience was with the X server, which
is not a simple project either; my second was with the Linux kernel.
I had some very experienced people to answer all my total newbie
questions and point me in the right direction.  Unfortunately, I don't
think this list can fill that role.  If you have a mentor, ask them
these basic questions; if you're teaching yourself, something simpler
might be better.
