 This section contains a list of smaller janitorial tasks in the kernel DRM
 graphics subsystem useful as newbie projects. Or for slow rainy days.
 
+Difficulty
+----------

+To make it easier task are categorized into different levels:
+
+Starter: Good tasks to get started with the DRM subsystem.
+
+Intermediate: Tasks which need some experience with working in the DRM
+subsystem, or some specific GPU/display graphics knowledge. For debugging issue
+it's good to have the relevant hardware (or a virtual driver set up) available

+Advanced: Tricky tasks that need fairly good understanding of the DRM subsystem

-The DRM subsystem originally had only one huge global header, ``drmP.h``. This

-the cleanup work here is to replace any ``#include <drm/drmP.h>`` by only the
-headers needed (and fixing up any missing pre-declarations in the headers).
+- For most connectors it's a no-op to call drm_connector_register/unregister
+  directly from driver code, drm_dev_register/unregister take care of this
+  already. We can remove all of them.
 
-In the end no .c file should need to include ``drmP.h`` anymore.
+- For dp drivers it's a bit more a mess, since we need the connector to be
+  registered when calling drm_dp_aux_register. Fix this by instead calling
+  drm_dp_aux_init, and moving the actual registering into a late_register
+  callback as recommended in the kerneldoc.

+Convert fbdev drivers to DRM
+----------------------------
+
+There are plenty of fbdev drivers for older hardware. Some hwardware has
+become obsolete, but some still provides good(-enough) framebuffers. The
+drivers that are still useful should be converted to DRM and afterwards
+removed from fbdev.
+
+Very simple fbdev drivers can best be converted by starting with a new
+DRM driver. Simple KMS helpers and SHMEM should be able to handle any
+existing hardware. The new driver's call-back functions are filled from
+existing fbdev code.
+
+More complex fbdev drivers can be refactored step-by-step into a DRM
+driver with the help of the DRM fbconv helpers. [1] These helpers provide
+the transition layer between the DRM core infrastructure and the fbdev
+driver interface. Create a new DRM driver on top of the fbconv helpers,
+copy over the fbdev driver, and hook it up to the DRM code. Examples for
+several fbdev drivers are available at [1] and a tutorial of this process
+available at [2]. The result is a primitive DRM driver that can run X11
+and Weston.
