In other projects files like that are handled in main directory. I should
consider moving code into "/src" directory, udev stuff into "/udev", man files
into "/man" instead.

If you would like to try create some patches to help me with cleanup I will be
appreciated!

For now, I'm working on following files:
- README.md - general instructions; what is it, how to contribute, etc.
- MAINTAINERS.md - instructions for maintainers.
- CHANGELOG.md - release stuff.

I choose markdown because it is most popular and it gives ".md" it the name:)
I should send them to review next week.

Thanks,
Mariusz
