Announcing a new naming convention!

[danic85]

The project has begun to grow in directions I didn't expect when I first started, and because the community (that's you!) would like to be able to build their own instances of different versions of the project, I've decided to update the naming convention of each version.

Previously we had v2, 3, 4 and 5, where each represented a different stage in the build process. It was confusing and difficult to understand which version someone was building, which makes helping them challenging.

We're now at a point where the v3, 4 and 5 are so similar we can combine into one (I will do this in the code soon). Version 2 is and has always been very different (the smaller robot and my first successful attempt).

Because of this, and following examples from ROS, android and many others, I'm going to start naming each major revision of the robot with a name. Each name will be alphabetically related to it's predecessor so that it is reasonably easy to understand which is the most recent.

Moreover, I have updated the Wiki to reflect this (checkout the new sidebar: https://github.com/makerforgetech/modular-biped/wiki).

The names are as follows:

Archie: The original build (small robot)
Buddy: The 'current' build, combining v3,4,5 and with an updated Wiki to clarify any lingering questions.
Cody: The next version, which I haven't started yet but incudes some significant changes planned.
etc...

I will make any future releases for Cody available as normal, and a lot may be backwards compatible, so you can pull them into your build of 'Buddy' if you like!

I hope this will make it easier to refer to each build as we try to support the community.

I am spending time rewriting the Wiki and adding articles around software architecture to help make the project more accessible.
