Re: [gentoo-soc] GSoC 2018 introduction

[Rajula Vineet Reddy(IMT2014045)]

Hey Alice & other mentors,


I hope this is not a bad time. For the past week or so I have been trying to get familiar with gentoo. It took some time to setup the environment. I had fun installing it nevertheless I had to try multiple times because of some mistake. Now, I started looking to the code base of Kernel_CI. I tried to get familiar with buildbot by setting it up on my system. I want to contribute before I go on with my proposal ( I know I am late in that too :( ). I thought I can ask you for some help in doing my initial contributions. I hope it's fine. Also, I would like to ask a few questions about the project for the proposal. Is it possible to have a one on one chat, or should I just email you the questions I have? Please let me know. Thanks in advance.


Best,

Rajula

Thanks for your interest in this projects.
Is nice to know that you have familiarity with linux kernel.
It will be great if you could try out and get familiar with Gentoo.
Because that is the common ground for doing GSoC with Gentoo.
You can also check and help out in the elivepatch-client[1],
elivepatch-server[2] and
Kernel live check [3] github repository/issues.

Have you still problem accessing the CI [4] ?
I have no problem from here.
