2020-02-16	Menke+2020 data is now imported and ready for later steps in plain text	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-0/+1
	The main problems with this dataset was the names of the journals (which sometimes have single quotes or apostrophes in them that is really annoying for SED)! But ultimately, for the simple study we want to do here, the journal names are irrelevant, so in the end I just ignored the names. Later we can set an identifier for the journals if necessary. But now we have the basic information in a way that is usable in a plot to show in this paper.
2020-01-18	First set of customizations done	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-1/+0
	The unnecessary parts were removed and the project now runs.
2020-01-01	Verification of output values and data added within template	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-0/+1
	Until now, the only verification that the template provided was the published PDF. Users had to manually compare the published and generated PDFs (numbers, plots, tables) and see if they obtained the same result. However, this type of manual verification is not good and is prone to frustration and missing important differences. With this commit, a new Makefile has been added in the analysis steps: `verify.mk'. It provides facilities to easily verify the results that go into the paper. For example tables that go into making the paper's plots, or the LaTeX macros that blend into the text. See the updated parts in `README-hacking.md` for a more complete explanation. This completes task #15497.
2020-01-01	Copyright statements updated to include 2020	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-1/+1
	Now that its 2020, its necessary to include this year in the copyright statements.
2019-10-01	Infrastructure to keep preparation results	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-6/+5
	A special directory is now defined in `initialize.mk' that can be used in both the preparation and build phases. Also, the contents of prepared results can now be conditionally read during `./project make'.
2019-10-01	Preparation phase added before final building	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-0/+136
	In many real-world scenarios, `./project make' can really benefit from having some basic information about the data before being run. For example when quering a server. If we know how many datasets were downloaded and their general properties, it can greatly optmize the process when we are designing the solution to be run in `./project make'. Therefore with this commit, a new phase has been added to the template's design: `./project prepare'. In the raw template this is empty, because the simple analysis done in the template doesn't warrant it. But everything is ready for projects using the template to add preparation phases prior to the analysis.
