3A guide to the Kernel Development Process
4=========================================
5
6The purpose of this document is to help developers (and their managers)
7work with the development community with a minimum of frustration. It is
8an attempt to document how this community works in a way which is
9accessible to those who are not intimately familiar with Linux kernel
10development (or, indeed, free software development in general). While
11there is some technical material here, this is very much a process-oriented
12discussion which does not require a deep knowledge of kernel programming to
13understand.
