I have put some time into looking thru the PR db and there is a LOT of
stuff that either could be closed or could be fixed right away.
But i guess whats holding me back is the same thing that is holding others
back. Whats the correct way to get my hands dirty?
Is Joachim's idea of reporting back to -hackers correct? (I guess that
would be -ports for ports related issues?)
Some of the issues are quite fun. I mean how important is it that a
BusLogic unit dosn't work under FreeBSD 2.2.6? This is a five year old PR,
half the lifespan of the FreeBSD project... Couldn´t we close kern/7264?
If someone offers to be my mentor i would gladly walk thru the db and stir
up some dust. Any volonteer? I can even formulate my questions so you only
have to answer YES/NO...
If there isn't any volonteer i guess i just have to start pestering
everyone on -hackers...
