Hello, My name is Aaditya Joil, and I am a computer science student with an interest in network programming and low-level systems. I recently started exploring OpenAFS and have set up a local test cell (on Arch Linux), including configuring users and experimenting with client/server setup. I’ve also read through the quick start guide and portions of the administrator's and user’s guides to better understand the architecture. I am particularly interested in the proposed project involving a netcat like tool for the Rx protocol. As an initial step, I reviewed the contributor guide and looked through the current github issues, but I am unsure which areas would be appropriate for a new contributor to start with. Are there specific subsystems, smaller tasks, or documentation gaps that would be good entry points while I continue learning the project's codebase? Thank you, Aaditya Joil
