First commit to the reproduction pipeline template

Let's start working on this pipeline independently with this first
commit. It is based on my previous experiences, but I had never made a
skeleton of a pipeline before, it was always within a working analysis.

But now that the pipeline has a separate repository for its self, we will
be able to work on it and use it as a base for future work and modify it to
make it even better. Hopefully in time (and with the help of others), it
will grow and become much more robust and useful.

+# Top-level user specific directories. Note the points below:
+#
+# - The VALUES to these directories are initially JUST PLACE-HOLDERS!
+#   Please correct them based on your system.
+#
+# - The directories don't need to necessarily exist. If they do not exist,
+#   they will be created and the necessary data will be downloaded into
+#   them. Ofcourse provided that you have write permissions and an internet
+#   connection.
+#
+# - Do not use the tilde expansion `~' or variables for your home
+#   directory. Please use the full address, for example
+#   `/home/your-user-name'.
+#
+# - An ending forward-slash `/' is NOT necessary. In the pipeline, all
+#   these variables will be followed by a `/', so if you put a `/' at the
+#   end of the value here, you will see a `//' in the printed outputs
+#   during the processing. This has no technical problem, but can make
+#   reading the outputs harder and is thus not recommended.

+
+# Input data directories
+# ----------------------
+#
+# This is where the input data (with the same file-name standard as the
+# online webpage) are stored. If this directory doesn't exist, or it
+# doesn't contain the files (with the correct file-name formats), it will
+# be created and the images will be downloaded. See
+# `reproduce/config/pipeline/web.mk', for the URLs containing the expected
+# inputs for each survey.

+
+# Build directory
+# ---------------
+#
+# This is where the intermediate outputs of each step are kept.
+#
+# Why a separate build directory? So the source and configuration files for
+# this reproduction pipeline do not get crowded by all the
+# intermediate/derivative files. Also to make synchronization and backups
+# more easy: the contents of the build directory do not need to be backed
+# up since they can be reproduced and they can be large.
