21 | The purpose of this document is to help developers (and their managers) | |
22 | work with the development community with a minimum of frustration. It is | |
23 | an attempt to document how this community works in a way which is | |
24 | accessible to those who are not intimately familiar with Linux kernel | |
25 | development (or, indeed, free software development in general). While | |
26 | there is some technical material here, this is very much a process-oriented | |
27 | discussion which does not require a deep knowledge of kernel programming to | |
28 | understand. | |
