Update README.md #107

I'm planning to archive this repo and add a copyleft license. I've received too many emails/pings expecting support for this senior design project (StackOverflow, here on GH, and personal/elsewhere), so I plan to put something in place that limits accessibility for for-profit activities with this design. If you're seeing this, feel free to reach out if you have concerns.

Final branch for your review...

License TBD, I'm open to suggestions...

I would add a license that limits commercial use to be zero. There are too many issues with allowing such a thing. Personal use seems fine, though.

On a related note, don't back yourself into a corner by disallowing the sale of a product that uses the code. If I had been part of the team, I would want to retain the right to sell something that is based on this repository. I don't know which license would allow that.
