In order to make it easier for them, I am trying to put together a page with projects that: - Are self contained enough that the students can implement the project by themselves, since that is often a university requirement. - Are self contained enough that Linux could merge the code (maybe with additional changes) after the student has been working on it for a few months. - Are large enough to qualify as a student project, luckily there is flexibility here since we get inquiries for anything from 6 week projects to 6 month projects. If you have ideas on what projects would be useful, please add them to this page (or email me): http://kernelnewbies.org/KernelProjects thanks, Rik -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it." - Brian W.
