updated toplevel license and readme

- new ergodox website
- clarification in licence indicating that parts of the project may not
  be under that license/copyright
  - currently the stuff in src/lib, and soon the stuff in contrib,
    (are|will be) under different copyrights, and possibly different
    licenses.
  - also, just so it's written down somewhere: some of my documentation
    may be considered derivative works of the specs|docs i was taking
    things from, but i hope i'm safe (fair use?).  i tried to make clear
    in each file where i got stuff though.

-As of now, it looks like we have a working 6-KRO keyboard firmware for a Teensy
+* 6KRO
-2.0 with a MCP23018 I/O expander.  It's scanning at ~167 Hz, most of which is
+* Teensy 2.0, MCP23018 I/O expander
-spent communicating over I²C.  This should be fast enough, I think.
+* ~167 Hz scan rate (most of which is spent communicating via I²C)
-Slight improvements might be possible (without finding a microprocessor capable
+* firmware level layers
-of > 400 kHz I²C or using SPI, that is, which I imagine would speed things
-up a lot - but it'd also be much less convenient).  I'll attempt them if I see
-the need.
-
-Also, layers are implemented, but untested, as no keymaps are written to use
-them yet.  Implementing on-keyboard hardware remapping seems like it'd be very
-possible too, but I'd need to try it (and learn how to programmatically store
-stuff in program space) to see if it'd work; and I'm not sure of a good way to
-do the interface, since different people will likely have different keycap
-layouts on the ergoDOX.
-
-Getting to N-KRO is a goal, but I honestly have no idea whether it'll be
-accomplished.  Ideally, I'd like a variable-KRO, where the keyboard is 6-KRO
-till you press the 7th key (so if you're worried about compatibility, just
-don't press more than 6 keys at a time).  From what I've read, it might be
-possible, but I just finished everything else (so I'm slightly tired), and the
-USB spec is scary.
-
-Discussions about the project as a whole are going on at the forum page (linked
-in the title) so if you have any imput (or want to participate in the group
-buy!), please stop by.  :) .
