Hello from a noob who wishes to contribute.

Hi,

Like many I have been programming for a long time and never got my
hands onto kernel development. I have been developing web applications
and some times implementations of protocols. I have tried developing
toy file systems and persistent queues most of which are half
completed. I have had an itch to do some low level programming for a
very long time.

Being a long time Linux user I was quite disappointed by the forceful
move to systemd, what annoys me the most is how it is engulfing
several projects. This led me to try out several of the BSD's. I came
across DragonFlyBSD as it seemed to have best driver support for my
laptop.

I was pleasantly surprised by the welcoming note on the home page
titled "Now Hiring". I started going through your various projects and
research ideas and found them quite interesting and quite overwhelming
seeing that there are so many tasks. Is there some place I could
start? I like file systems, so would HAMMER be a good place to start
with? Or would it be wise to pick up a tiny bug and try solving it?

I would appreciate any feedback and would love to be a part of this community.

Looking to help out,

satran
