[Ilugc] Guide to OSS contributions

Have seen a few folks ask questions on how to contribute to OSS. Here
is one site that has come up for that. Person has written a book too.

It would be apt if those espousing the cause of FOSS use this as
reading material for their wards and also encourage educational
institutions to recommend this as reading so that the urge to make
contributions is served. Will AU-KBC take the lead to include this in
the FOSS syllabus?
