[geomoose-psc] Publishing the Ledger

[Dan Little]

I've created a Git repository on www.

1. I created a new 'ledger' account on www.
2. I initialized a bare git repo.
3. I put a new public key of mine into authorized_keys.
4. I added www as origin, and set it to master's upstream on my local clone.
5. There is a summary.py file that will summarize the CSV file.

If there's anyone (other than Jim) who would like me to add their public
key to the repo, please let me know.  I will do so and send you the
appropriate git-clone command.

Cheers!
