In 1999 Dave 'Barc0de' Jones, Paranoid wierdo noize making geek, wrote this: http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/9901.2/0939.html I failed to find a link, but in 2004 Dave Jones, a well-known kernel hacker, wrote something like "Wow, it's fun to read my own old mail, how naive I was back then :)" Feel free to get your hards dirty with kernel development, and maybe you will say something similar a few years from now. Or maybe not, and I will be proven wrong. -- vda
