I know some books of OS, as Linus mentioned in his biography book. The reason why I choose kernel code is that I think it strict and compact, it's bug-less, it has a code style guide. But other softwares' codes may not. As a matter of fact, I've ever thought about starting a project on my own and others may help me, but I have little experience in C, hence it seems impossible. You mean find project on Debian website - develop page? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
