--_000_YQXPR01MB41685289EB353E39D8023839D3CBAYQXPR01MB4168CANP_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello list, I need a term project for a grad school OS course, and the "POSIX Complianc= e Testing" project listed at https://wiki.freebsd.org/IdeasPage resonated w= ith my professor and I. We both like the practical flavour of the idea; th= ere is no need for a hypothesis or any academic fluff (beyond my own submit= ted report). I'm sending this email to see if anyone is already working on this, and als= o to open this to any feedback/guidance others may have. Ideally, the main outcome is a PR into https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-c= i<https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ci/>; which implements a compliance tes= t/report that can be run automatically. I am open to suggestions if there = is a more useful outcome. My goals are to simply "do something useful" for= the FreeBSD project before the end of the term, and pass my course :) -Troy Denton --_000_YQXPR01MB41685289EB353E39D8023839D3CBAYQXPR01MB4168CANP_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html> <head> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-= 1"> <style type=3D"text/css" style=3D"display:none;"> P {margin-top:0;margin-bo= ttom:0;} </style> </head> <body dir=3D"ltr"> <div style=3D"font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size= : 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class=3D"elementToProof"> Hello list,</div> <div style=3D"font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size= : 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class=3D"elementToProof"> <br> </div> <div style=3D"font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size= : 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class=3D"elementToProof ContentPasted0 Conten= tPasted1"> I need a term project for a grad school OS course, and the "POSIX Comp= liance Testing" project listed at <a href=3D"https://wiki.freebsd= .org/IdeasPage" id=3D"LPlnk552120">https://wiki.freebsd.org/IdeasPage</a>&n= bsp;resonated with my professor and I.
