Automating client generation from server config

[Blaisorblade]

The server configuration contains enough info to generate the client — we've managed to automate the process, up to generating zip packages — see documentation and code here:
https://github.com/ps-tuebingen/handin/tree/master/generate-handin-client

Is there enough interest in this?

The only missing piece is converting those ZIP packages to PLT ones if you want to support auto-updating; right now I do that externally from Racket as an additional step.

Scratch that piece, Matthew Flatt just enlightened me on distributing via github.
