Subject: Question On staging/drivers/staging/*/TODO

Hi,

I'm brand new to kernel dev and after going through Kernel Newbies
am trying to find a good first patch to work.

I just wanted to know if the TODO files, mentioned in the subject, are
up-to-date. If not, would you have any suggestions on where to find
a good first patch to work on?

Thanks so much!

Ray
