+ABOUT
+
+The logreq package helps to automate a typical LaTeX workflow that
+involves running LaTeX several times, running tools such as BibTeX
+or makeindex, and so on. It will log requests like "please rerun
+LaTeX" or "please run BibTeX on file X" to an external XML file
+which lists all open tasks in a machine-readable format. Compiler
+scripts and integrated LaTeX editing environments may parse this
+file to determine the next steps in the workflow in a way that is
+more efficient than parsing the main log file. In sum, the package
+will do two things: 1) enable package authors to use LaTeX commands
+to issue requests, 2) collect all requests from all packages and
+write them to an external XML file at the end of the document.
