Subject: Trying to make the Abstract shorter, keywords sorted alphabetically

With this commit, I have tried to make the Abstract a bit shorter. I
think it was too long considering that there are plenty of space in the
paper to describe some of the points that were noticed in the abstract.
The main point is just to try to be atractive to the reader being
focused to the main points. In any case I think there are room for
improving it. The keywords have also been sorted alphabetically.

 %% Abstract
 {\noindent\mpregular
   The era of big data has also ushered an era of big responsability.
-  Without it, the integrity of the result will be a subject of perpetual debate.
-  In this paper Maneage is introduced as a low-level solution to this problem.
-  Maneage (management + lineage) is an executable workflow for project authors and readers in the sciences or the industry.
-  It is designed following principles: complete (e.g., not requiring anything beyond a POSIX-compatible system, administrator previlages or a network connection), modular, fully in plain-text, minimal complexity in design, verifiable inputs and outputs, temporal lineage/provenance, and free software (in scientific applications).
-  A project that uses Maneage will have full control over the data lineage, making it exactly reproducible.
-  This control goes as far back as the automatic downloading of input data, and automatic building of necessary software that are used to analyze the data, with fixed versions and build configurations.
-  It also contains the narrative description of the final project's report (built into a PDF), while providing automatic and direct links between the analysis and the part of the narrative description that it was used.
-  Also, starting new projects, or editing previously published papers is trivial because of its version control system.
-  If adopted on a wide scale, Maneage can greatly improve scientific collaborations and building upon the work of other researchers instead of the current technical frustrations many researchers experience and can affect their scientific result and interpretations.

   It can also be used on more ambitious projects like automatic workflow creation through machine learning tools, or automating data management plans.
