Hi all,

It's been gud initiative by you but there should be some more point need to add like there should be general question
need to be ask and before asking any question Subject and Question should be well formatted and understandable very well
by anyone and also it should be well defined module what need to be ask,for example question shouldn't be very specific to arch,kernel and board.

Regards
Sanjeev Sharma

Anuz, I think your document is right on-target.    I would just add,
"Don't ask for help with basic C programming."    Yes, there are lots
of idioms in the kernel that are not found elsewhere in C, and asking
about those is on-topic, but questioners should not (intentionally)
ask questions that will be answered by consulting K&R.

Also, readers should not ask questions relevant to particular boards
or drivers.   Those questions should be asked (if at all) on
specialist mailing lists.


good points, I think i will add those points.
One more thing which totally slipped out my mind is adding "Robert Day's Link". I guess its one of the most update kernel beginners guide, I will add that one as well.
