Re: [GENERAL] Online course for those who want tot contribute
Cutting ties by my own interest: I want better Postgres. I want to teach those who probably will push patches. Best regards, Andrey Borodin. четверг, 6 октября 2016 г. пользователь Joshua D.

I need to compose list of homeworks related to usual skills necessary for a hacker. I’m going to put on the list training on building from source, testing and reviewing patches, reading mailing lists. How do you think, what skills are most important for someone who wants to contribute to PostgreSQL? How they can be converted to homework task? What homework tasks do you see useful in spite of AM accent? M.B. Like track and fix a bug in a specific patch? There are two types of hackers within this community: Hacking internals (similar to Linux Kernel) Hacking Generalist (Working around PG's limitations) The first one would be more beneficial for the community but the second would be more beneficial for someone using something like EdX.

[GENERAL] Online course for those who want tot contribute
Hi everyone! From time to time I teach at Ural Federal University. Currently university wants me to make up online course. They are going to put it to platform like edX or something. I do not want to do another general programming course, so I made up my mind to do a “postgres-hacker” course. But according to my research topic course must be related to access methods, this is one of requirements from university. I need to compose list of homeworks related to usual skills necessary for a hacker. I’m going to put on the list training on building from source, testing and reviewing patches, reading mailing lists. How do you think, what skills are most important for someone who wants to contribute to PostgreSQL? How they can be converted to homework task? What homework tasks do you see useful in spite of AM accent? M.B. Like track and fix a bug in a specific patch?
