Great Statesman v0.9.3+SDK 2016-10-05

This mod adds a new great person and specialist to the game. These work
mostly like the other great people and specialists in the game. Some of
these benefits include turning gold into hammers, hurrying up production,
etc. Several buildings have been updated to incorporate the features in
this mod.

-----Notes to Modmakers-----

If you want to use the Greate Statesman Mod in your mod I have tried to make
things as easy as possible for you. In the XML files modified sections are
enclosed by:
<!-- -->
<!-- Great Statesman Start -->
<!-- -->
and
<!-- -->
<!-- Great Statesman End -->
<!-- -->

In the Python files I have added #<GS START> and #<GS END> in all of the
places that I have made changes to the original files. I have also included
the Specialist Stacker Mod v0.7 of CvMainInterface.py file.

All I ask is that you give me credit.
