What small projects would you suggest to a novice with the ALSA kernel. The aim is to develop a familiarity with the ALSA kernel source code, and also to submit it for academic purposes.
I'm not an academicist by far but if you want your patches to be academic, I think it's more of a question of scientific rigour and scientific method,
No - it is an issue of education. They are trying to learn something that they don't already know. The contribution is they become educated.
such that when the patch(set) is finally accepted by the Linux community and Linus Torvalds ultimately, you can write a paper about it.
They are not writing a paper for Linus. They are writing it for their dean or mentor.
Obviously there are a lot of things an academicist could bring from his background to improve the Linux kernel,
Yeah - but that is not what they are trying to do. And if that was the case, this would likely not be the list for it, since this is a newbies list.
My suggestion is to ask Takashi Iwai if he has in mind
BOINK - the doesn't need a new student dragging on his tail and if he did then he would chose an intern to help with his code.
You are failing to understand how higher education works.
