>Why do you want an up to date list of kernel bugs? Even I'm a newbie and was looking for the same thing. I read eventually somewhere that bugzilla isn't maintained by kernel devs so I entirely gave up trying to find a bug to adopt. Many open source projects I've worked on (web frameworks mostly) have a well maintained list of bugs and tag the right ones "newbie" or "beginner suitable" and newbies can learn the ropes and get started easy. Even chromium has a "GoodFirstBug" tag for newbies. With the linux kernel not only doesn't anything exist, the project itself is so bloody hard right, kernel programming, most of the bugzilla bugs I can barely understand let alone even begin to deduce what is going on. Now given that the list itself isn't maintained makes things extremely hard. Thanks @Nick for bringing this up. I would love to help you clean up the bugs, give me an email of any ideas you have on how to start.
