Using optaplanner to plan water supplies for burning man

Hi everyone, I wrote this post primarily because

- Optaplanner's docs assume quite a bit of sophistication, and it was quite difficult to get up and running with the tool

- It's a really nice example of where even simple, day to day problems can be solved with computers. This was a real, genuine problem that I personally had. Most of the time I deal with work problems that are a little more abstract, but this is really direct and personal.

Also I know some people have strong opinions about the burn :). But I'm pretty sure no one has strong opinions about water planning and desert safety, and hopefully they balance out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
