I just thought that may be it will be quicker to start to develop for
kernel.
It can be, but one word of caution. ?Sometimes bugs
get fixed independently from the bug report, and the
bug described in the bug report may no longer be
happening in the current kernel.

It would be good to test the bugs people have filed,
to make sure they still exist, before trying to "fix
them again" :)

I would give http://eudyptula-challenge.org/ a try. Guess is the
fastest and coolest way to get started.

Ok, thanks. But actually I was confused and disappointed little bit when opened kernel bugzilla.
I found old and very old bugs and I don't suppose that they are actual. 
As for education and understanding how kernel sub-systems works it could be very useful try to fix some of them.

Well... I'm already involved there. But there is no response over one month.
This situation reminds me that something similar has been happened with Eudyptula a couple months ago.
Moreover I think that their tasks are too easy, at least first 6 of them.
