Hello,
We belong to two student groups, FLUSP [1] and LKCAMP [2], both of which are focused on sharing kernel and free software development knowledge and experience with fellow free software developers and newcomers.
As part of our efforts, we'll be organizing a KUnit hackathon in the next Saturday (July 10), where we intend to help newcomers convert existing runtime tests (the ones found at lib/) to KUnit and maybe create new ones. Depending on the number of attendees, a high volume of patches may be sent throughout the day. We will do our best to review all patches before they go to the kernel mailing lists hoping to avoid wasting your time with minor patching issues.
That's awesome! I'm really excited!
:D
So we wanted to let you know of all this beforehand and give you the time to send any suggestions or comments on all this. For instance, we may ask people to add a special tag to their patches so you may batch review them all at a later time if you wish.
I wouldn't worry about it until it becomes an actual "problem"; too many patches is a good problem to have :-)
Anyhow, we'd really appreciate having your opinion on this.
I don't think I have anything to add that Daniel didn't already add in his reply. Also, I have seen Marcelo around for a while. I have to say, I don't think I have seen a student group this involved upstream. I am impressed :-)
Thanks!
Thank *you*!
I wish I could offer more material assistance, but with only a week's notice, I don't think I can. I will try to be online periodically throughout the day, but I am afraid I cannot promise anything.
No matter what, we would be somewhat limited with what we can do in 2021 because of COVID. No promises, but if this goes well maybe next year we might be able to send someone in person if that's something you would be interested in.
Wow, that would be really awesome!
Best of luck! I hope it goes well!
Thank you for the support! Next time, I'll make sure to send this notice earlier
