Moved the misc txt files into the doc dir...
I wasn't sure maybe the two license files should be put in the root dir
instead....
I also reformated the bf-members.txt file a little to nuke extra spaces and
newlines (as well as updated my entry to include my name instead of just
sirdude... It looks like there are some special chars in it that someone
should fixup, not sure what they are suppose to be though)
