A more ambitious project, and one which seems to me worthwhile, would be a descriptive tour of the source code and data structures. Something larger than an FAQ and (one hopes) smaller than a book. The existence of such things is useful in bootstrapping newbies (like me) in Linux kernel stuff, and with it I would feel more confident about dipping my toes in on Pg as well.

And, no, I can't write it because I am one who would need it in the first place. I guess those who could write it have plenty on their plates.

Keeping it up to date would be a pain too.

But still, it would be nice.

Just part of the baptism of fire for a newbie, I guess. :-)


I've found the learning curve pretty steep too. Is it worth putting together some of these 'gotchas' into a neophyte-developer-FAQ?




There nothing stopping you from submitting improved wording for the FAQ if you think it would be helpful.
