378Managing bug reports
379--------------------
380
381One of the best ways to put into practice your hacking skills is by fixing
382bugs reported by other people. Not only you will help to make the kernel
383more stable, you'll learn to fix real world problems and you will improve
384your skills, and other developers will be aware of your presence. Fixing
385bugs is one of the best ways to earn merit amongst the developers, because
386not many people like wasting time fixing other people's bugs.
387
388To work in the already reported bug reports, go to http://bugzilla.kernel.org.
389If you want to be advised of the future bug reports, you can subscribe to the
390bugme-new mailing list (only new bug reports are mailed here) or to the
391bugme-janitor mailing list (every change in the bugzilla is mailed here)
