I like this idea, but am not sure in what form such tutorials could be. I am familiar with the tutorials given at conferences, in which an audience gets taught how to write a device driver, debug the kernel, etc.. Linux also has "skeleton" device drivers, which provide a framework for writing new drivers. Since these kinds of tutorials and guidelines need a kernel source tree and a compiler to work, I'm not sure how they could possibly done as online tutorials... What kind of tutorial did you have in mind ? -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it." - Brian W. Kernighan -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
