Content of introduction

[tobyhodges]

We didn't discuss what will go into the introductory episode. A couple of thoughts:

1. The licensing episode relies on learners having already created a project on GitHub, which means that we need to move that section out of episode 3, either into the introduction or as a prerequisite (we can put the instructions into extras or get rid of it entirely and link to another online guide)
2. The introduction seems like a good place to answer the question "why open source?" I would like to see this acknowledge and address some of the "fears" listed in the supplementary materials of the paper (link), perhaps as an exercise/icebreaker.

I think that I've somewhat addressed both points in PR #52 . Comments and suggestions are obviously more than welcome.

We can close the issue when the PR is merged.

I think that we still need to move the "Create a project on GitHub" exercise/guide out of make-it-public before we can close this. The question is: do we put it in extras or in the introduction?

[tobyhodges]

In #50, I move it into the introduction. If that gets merged in addition to #52, then I agree that we can close this.

That is a fair point; I agree that it seems better fitted to the introduction so I can merge #50 (I see that it's ready to be merged in any case), and then try to fix the introduction so that the "Create a project" part is at the end of the episode itself. Sounds good?

Sounds good to me 👍

Ok, done. If there are no other suggestions/edits, I will be closing this issue.
