Hi,

Can anyone suggest some trivial newbie projects for the ext code base? I
don't care how menial it is, typo changes, logging, testing (something
specific), etc. I've been lurking on the list for awhile and want to
start getting my hands dirty.

Thanks,
Kirk

Hi all,

Just goes to show -- I meant "unglamorous" ;)

Thanks.

Take a look here:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ext3

In particular these sort of reports are good places to get started, as
you should be able to reproduce them yourself in a VM:

Cheers,
Duane.
