Has anyone thought about adding a useful tools section on kernel.org.
Something that has direct links to tools such as ketchup, quilt, sparse,
mc with it's patch editor. Something that would help wanna-be kernel
hackers get started.
I'm still finding cool tools to help with kernel hacking, and usually its
only because I stumble across them, or have another hacker tell me about
it.
Perhaps having a section on kernel.org (or is this better on
kernelnewbies.org?) That just focuses on the tools that kernel hackers use
to simplify there lives.
Or is there a global repository somewhere that already does this?
Thanks,
