Q: I want to get started doing something useful, which project should I help out on?

A: The best thing to do is subscribe to the kernelnewbies mailing list and ask if anyone would like to take a newbie onto their project

Q: Can you set me some kernel programming assignments?

A: Sorry, I simply don't have time to do this for everyone who asks. I hope to add some more examples followed by tasks/assignments to each section of the document in the near future.
