What am I seeing? The front page hasn't been updated since May 2010.

I wanted to get into kernel development and a couple weeks ago I checked out Kernel Newbies. I was excited to see a list of projects that "Computer Science students" could work on -- that was me. That list has projects from 2007-2009.

The community is amazing. The forums are a wealth of information, and I've tracked down almost every single bug just by searching. The wiki is updated regularly and is just as rich.

In my experience Arch users are very happy and proud to be running such a powerful, flexible system, and they give back by helping others. I ran Slackware for a year, then messed around with Mint before trying Arch. I can't see myself trying anything else -- except maybe LFS ;).
