+Description: Transform a set of abstract requirements into a series of steps
+ Given a set of requirements for a task, make-magic figures out what has
+ to be done and what order to do it in. It keeps track of which steps
+ have been done, and makes sure that everything is done in the correct
+ order. It can hook into other systems to automate the steps themselves,
+ the combination of which can do complex, unique builds without any human
+ intervention.
+
+ Originally written to automate server builds, make-magic may be useful
+ in any area that requires a set of requirements to be turned into an
+ ordered sequence of actions.
