I am an RHCE and have a reasonable knowledge of linux administration, database, Bash Scripting, and C/C++. I want to contribute to the community. I have gone through the FreeBSD handbook, and list of various projects under the community. However, I was unable to determine a suitable project for me to get started. So, I would really appreciate if you could help me find a project that would require my field of knowledge. Also, I wish to apply for GSOC-2014 and have checked the ideas page but found the similar problems as above. Also, if you could give me a link of resources and handbook for me to go through before starting to contribute. -- Regards :) Karan
