I am aware of the OpenCog Ideas pages (http://wiki.opencog.org/w/Category:Ideas) and (http://wiki.opencog.org/w/Ideas) and there is mentioned in some items that mentoring is available, Thats good. But are there available some of the following resources (if collaboration goes good):
- test AtomSpace
- execution environment (e.g. remote desktop or remote commandline)

I have only 8GB RAM Windows desktop which means that I will have only 2-4 GB RAM available for Linux virtual machine which should run OpenCog. Are these resources enough for tests and for making thesis work?

Are there ideas that are interesting in the areas:
- logical methods of knowledge represenation (with possible applications)
- natural language understanding and representation (with as few as possible statistical methods)
- applications for software code generation or knowledge/model driven (software) engineering
- A(G)I and Law

2-4 GB should be OK for compiling the code and run some small experiments.

If you want to have some good idea of what OpenCog can currently do have
a look at the examples directories under atomspace and opencog repositories.

attached is a half-finished paper:


I plan to work on this again over the next few weeks.
