Re: Seeking Suggestions for Open Source Projects to Contribute to as a New Contributor

Hi Pragati,

Glad to hear your interest.

If working in hypervisors excite you, then you can have a look at Xen
project "https://xenproject.org".
You would need to subscribe to the xen-devel mailing list.

There are some things which a newbie can get started with. For eg
https://lore.kernel.org/all/alpine.DEB.2.22.394.2309281609360.1996340@ubuntu-linux-20-04-desktop/T/#m0971ebab276a4f7e63982523cf535059322a4f2e
https://gitlab.com/groups/xen-project/-/issues/?label_name%5B%5D=Difficulty%3A%3A1-GOOD%20FIRST%20ISSUE
<https://lore.kernel.org/all/alpine.DEB.2.22.394.2309281609360.1996340@ubuntu-linux-20-04-desktop/T/#m0971ebab276a4f7e63982523cf535059322a4f2e>
