Excuse me, I did not see the patch details, but I guess it is about whether welcome a new member to upstream kernel. For me, I have 3 ideas about it if I am a newbie or a normal kernel developer:
- Do I have enough basic skills for it?
- Do I developed one or more another real world projects with C? (they are successful projects -- at least, not failure projects)
- Can I construct related develop environments to support what I do? (e.g. building and testing for upstream kernel)
- Am I familiar the basic working flow about kernel mailing list. (e.g. format-patch, sending patch, email client configuration...).
- Do I have a correct attitude on it?
- Am I careful enough? (e.g. if find some details may doubt, try to check and clear them) (it is always neccessary for all patches)
- Am I try my best for it? (e.g. when finish coding, try what I can do: build, run and test). (it is neccessary for most cases)
- Do I have negative effect with others? (e.g. discourage the newbies, or send spam to other members ...). (need always try to avoid)
- Do I really love programming, also love open source kernel?
- Do I love it, or I have to do it for another reason? (I guess, most of gmail members in open source, love programming).
- Do I still love programming if I am discouraged by any members?
- Do I still love open source kernel if discouraged by any members?
Thanks.
