Thanks for the interest.

First, although the mailing lists are still up, we have moved
from using them as the primary means of communication and
submitting patches to Gitlab (https::/gitlab.rtems.org), Discord
(https://www.rtems.org/discord) and Discourse (users.rtems.org)
for longer term, threaded discussions.

As a first step with RTEMS, we recommend doing the hello world
exercise discussed at
https://docs.rtems.org/docs/main/user/start/gsoc.html#gsoc-getting-started
As part of this, you will build a cross tool chain for RTEMS and run
code on a simulator. Once you have successfully completed this, you
will have the necessary environment set up to begin looking at tasks.
If you need something specific to test on, we will help identify that
environment.

The projects currently identified are at https://projects.rtems.org/.
It is quite possible some need updating to reflect progress made on
them. Just ask.

But do the hello world and find something that interests you.

I've cc'ed Gedare Bloom who may have other suggestions.
