Hi Nick,

just in case you did not know:
The Documentation directory in linux-Git has a subfolder called
"process" (RST format) which gives a lot of hints.

All stuff is also available as HTML if you prefer this format.
See [0] "A guide to the Kernel Development Process".

Hope that helps you.

Regards,
