Hi, I'm after some advice :-) I've done little real coding since leaving university <ahem> a few years back (having, sadly, taken a more suit-like career path) but would like to get back into it. I guess you could call me a born-again newbie (not that I was ever a *guru* exactly)... Specifically, I'd like to code in an area that interests me - such as FreeBSD (system or applications - I'm flexible), where I've been a happy user for a number of years but not exactly contributed much. I've read the relevant section of the handbook, with the todo lists &c., but I'm still at a bit of a loss for where to start - having trouble seeing the wood from the trees I think... Any tips (such as ideas for a project, anecdotes or pointers to some good texts on systems programming)?
