As a follow-up to a discussion at the 2021 Maintainer's Summit on the topic of maintainer recruitment and retention, the TAB took on the task of creating a document which to help companies and other organizations to grow in their ability to engage with the Linux Kernel development community, using the Maturity Model[2] framework. The goal is to encourage, in a management-friendly way, companies to allow their engineers to contribute with the upstream Linux Kernel development community, so we can grow the "talent pipeline" for contributors to become respected leaders, and eventually kernel maintainers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
