Why Use Make
The article has the following near the end:
"To see more real-world examples of makefiles, see my [World Atlas](https://github.com/mbostock/world-atlas) and [U.S. Atlas](https://github.com/topojson/us-atlas) projects, which contain makefiles for generating TopoJSON from Natural Earth, the National Atlas, the Census Bureau, and other sources."
I checked those repositories because the descriptions of the makefiles sound interesting, but I couldn't find the makefiles. Am I looking wrong?

Why Use Make
I've been working on a tool called Knit (https://github.com/zyedidia/knit) that I think is similar to what you are looking for. Essentially, a Knitfile is a Lua program with Make's declarative rule syntax baked in. It is like Make (with some additional changes inspired by Plan9 mk), but where Make's custom scripting language is replaced with Lua. It's still in progress (I'm currently using it in some projects, and then will likely make some more changes based on my experiences), but I hope to release a stable version in the next few months. If you or others also have feedback, please let me know!
