TODO:

• Intro, what the goals are, why they should be excited about developing for the kernel.

• What skills are good to have (e.g. having taken an OS class is good), or how they can get those skills later on, like by reading Linux Device Drivers
• Outline of what this tutorial covers
• If you run into any issues, ask on the opw irc channel, or email sarah.a.sharp at linux.intel.com
• Step 0: install Linux on a home computer (alternative instructions for installing in a VM would be good, but I have no background in that).
• Build a custom kernel
• Find out which drivers you have installed (maybe plug in any USB devices on hand)
• Make small change in one of the drivers (e.g. run checkpatch over them, or fix some grammer in the printks)
• Or maybe pick a driver in staging and run checkpatch on it
• Test your patch (may need to enable debugging)
• Make a patch (link to art of patch description creation)
• Send patch to kernel newbies mailing list as RFC (perhaps we need a separate mailing list?)
