Hello all, � Hello,� I am interested in working with an expert OpenBSD developer who could mentor me for a defined project. If this could be through the GSoC, that would be ideal, but I am also interested in other mentorship opportunities. Please let me know if you're available! � I think it would be great if you know and care about some C and Rust programming language. You can still get involved in some OpenBSD sub-system specific to your interests maybe deal with integration part of a packaging first. Your next step will be device driver development and some links to give you great information:� 1. Build a kernelhttps://cromwell-intl.com/open-source/openbsd-kernel.html� 2. Kernel Internalshttps://medium.com/@_neerajpal/openbsd-kernel-internals-creation-of-process-from-user-space-to-kernel-space-31a504389f87� 3. Device Driver Developmenthttps://www.openbsd.org/papers/eurobsdcon2017-device-drivers.pdf� My skills/interests are below: C: Beginner/not interested C++: Beginner/not interested Rust: Beginner/very interested Python: intermediate/interested SQL: Advanced/interested CSS: intermediate/interested Docker: intermediate/interested Foundation: intermediate/interested Kubernetes: intermediate/interested Shell scripting: intermediate/interested Networking: intermediate/very interested Security: intermediate/very interested Documentation: intermediate/very interested Project Management: Waterfall: Advanced/interested. Agile: intermediate/interested. Interoperability: intermediate/very interested WordPress: Advanced/very interested Open standards: Intermediate/very interested Advocacy: intermediate/very interested GitHub: intermediate/interested IRC: intermediate/interested I also bring specialized skills in health data management/standards and related software (ex. EMRs, Mirth, Meditech, HL7, etc.) and geographic information systems. My contributions to OpenBSD have been focused on advocacy, website dev, and administration/board work, with no contributions to the code, ports, or docs. I'd really like to make some more technical contributions. My undergrad degree is from the University of Waterloo and I'm now completing my Master's of Science at Telfer School of Management. Thank you for considering, Katie � --Ozgur
