Hello Sir
I am Krishna, currently doing my btech from Indian Institute of Information technology,Allahabad India. I came to know RIOT as an organisation from GSOC-15 and I wanted to contribute to Riot.I am new to open source development and dont know where to start.I am quite thorough with the Computer Organisation And Architecture ,Operating Systems,Digital Electronics,Data-Structures And Algorithms as they were my Course Subjects.Morever I own and have worked with Arduino UNO and Arduino Mega using Arduino IDE. Apart from ArduinoMega devboard I have used Atmega2560 with AVR platform(avr-gcc) and avrdude to flash it on the device.I have also worked with a robot FirebirdV5 http://www.nex-robotics.com/products/fire-bird-v-robots/fire-bird-v-atmega2560-robotic-research-platform.html and Intel 8086 Microprocessor. While I was going through the github and the Tutorial-RIOT(http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/840499/RIOT-Tutorial) to familiarise with RIOT ,i got stuck while running on native as i am not able to use “addr” command to specify address because the shell doesnt have any command called “addr”,just help me in this case.Also i wanted to ask what should i learn and do so that i get familiarized with RIOT and become able to contribute.
Thanks, Krishna
