Dear FreeBSD community,

My name is M.Gopi Siddhardh, and I am a Student of VITAP with an interest
in learning  C, C++, Rust. I have used Haiku OS in the past and love
working with operating systems. I'm writing to introduce myself and express
my interest in contributing to FreeBSD.

I am particularly interested in the network stack and security aspects

<https://docs-archive.freebsd.org/doc/2.2.8-RELEASE/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook355.html#705>.
I'm currently learning the codebase and was hoping to get some guidance on
where I could start with a "good first issue" in this area.

I've already set up a FreeBSD development environment. Thank you for your
time.

Best regards,

M.Gopi SIddhardh
