+# Tasks for role edx_service
+# 
+# Overview:
+#
+# This role performs the repetive tasks that most edX roles
+# require in our default configuration.
+#
+# Example play:
+#
+# Rather than being included in the play, this role
+# is included as a dependency by other roles in the meta/mail.yml
+# file.  The including role should add the following
+# depency definition.
+#
+# dependencies:
+#   - { role: edx_service, edx_service_name: "hotg" }
+#
