Per subject. They want the article to introduce the reader to OpenCog, with a basic structure of:
" Introduction : What is opencog? What components is it comprised of?
What languages is it written in?
Setting up opencog for development : Using Ubuntu 16.04 . Use
docker.
Your first atoms in Scheme : Example of creating atoms, for
representing atoms in scheme. (Show how to do this)
Your first atoms in Python : Same as above but in python
How to contribute? : Communication options for potential contributors
References : links to wiki.opencog.org and github resources.
It should show new OpenCog devs what problems OpenCog solves and when you would choose to use OpenCog."
I can handle the technical parts of the article, but I thought I'd offer the project the opportunity for some message control in the Intro section.

Sure! How long is the intro section supposed to be, and what is the
timeline on this? I'm happy to make some suggestions...

I was ballparking it at 500-750 words for the intro. Final delivery is 3/17; I'd like to deliver a draft by 3/15 for editorial review.
My compliments to whoever got the Vagrant installer up and running, by the way, the project is tons more newbie-friendly than when I fought through it years ago.
