in Linux and would like to make a contribution to its software development.
My biggest concern is whether my skills are good enough to make a
contribution.
I am willing to learn and put in as much effort as it is required to get the
job done.
Awesome. That's really what matters then. Your desire and effort are
very much welcome!
Could you please tell me how much time you expect people you mentor to
work
on a package per week? What is the time frame you allow for people to
complete a project?
Well, since this is volunteer, there really is no required minimum
effort. But if you find something you really enjoy want to work on,
then chances are you will be more motivated to put forth more effort.
So, find something interesting to you, and have fun. That's really
what's important in the end anyway.
I know the answer is very broad and generic, but its really important to
keep that in mind. If you have any specific questions about how to do
certain things, feel free to ask them here.
Thanks!
