+PACManager
+==========
+
+PACManager is a Django webapp designed to manage the monthly fees associated with running a PAC (Personal Alt Corp) within TEST Alliance.
+
+Why?
+----
+
+Managing 20+ PACs became a pain the arse for everyone involved, and with our tax rules it usually ended up with corporations paying the bare minimum required, when actually they owed 5-6x more.
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+1. Create a virtualenv, pip install requirements.
+2. Setup your flavour of WSGI container and webserver (TEST uses uwsgi and Ngnix)
+3. Schedule some crontabs to run the updatecorps and updatepayments management commands
