+Majic Ansible Roles
+===================
+
+Majic Ansible Roles is a collection of Ansible roles that are used on regular
+basis for deployment and maintenance of Majic infrastructure.
+
+The roles are kept as a separate project in hope of making them potentially
+useful to wider audience, and for reference purposes.
+
+Roles cover different aspects of infrastructure, such as mail servers, web
+servers, web applications etc. The roles are mainly well-suited for smaller
+installations.
