Unless I'm very mistaken what art was talking about is even linked from the www.openbsd.org front page. This discussion begs the question: Why is it so important to find handholding to start kernel hacking? Kernel hacking isn't for everyone, and as far as I can tell it isn't necessarily such a glorious existence either. The only way to find out if it /is/ for you, is the hard way: Put in the time needed to understand how to solve a particular problem, code your fix and submit the patch to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you do manage to put together a halfway useful patch and post it on tech@, you will get some measure of feedback. How you respond to that feedback will help determine if you are cut out for kernel hacking. And again, why focus narrowly on the kernel? There's a whole base system out there, and it would be deeply unfair to forget about packages. And of course, if your coding skills aren't all that hot, there are several types of activities that would benefit the project which may not even involve contributing code. -- Peter N. M.
