  Description     : Polycyclic presentations for matrix groups

The Polenta package provides methods to compute polycyclic presentations of
matrix groups (finite or infinite). As a by-product, this package gives some
functionality to compute certain module series for modules of solvable
groups. For example, if G is a rational polycyclic matrix group, then we can
compute the radical series of the natural Q[G]-module Q^d.

This is yet another GAP package. I am packaging this because the package
gap-cryst that I am maintaining has added it as a dependency in its latest
version.

The package will be maintained by me with a little help from Bill Alombert.
