Split README and README.mdHEADmaster
The latter is customized to show Travis' CI build status on Github, and will have more hosting specific content going forward. The regular README will be targeted for offline information, and will not be necessarilya markdown file either. Signed-off-by: Simo Sorce <simo@redhat.com>

+Custodia
+========
+
+A tool for managing secrets.
+
+
+Custodia is a project that aims to define an API for modern cloud applications
+that allows to easily store and share passwords, tokens, certificates and any
+other secret in a way that keeps data secure, mangeable and auditable.
+
+The Custodia project offers example implementations of clear text and encrypted
+backends, and aims to soon provide drivers to store data in external data
+stores like the Vault Project, OpenStack's Barbican, FreeIPA's Vault and
+similar.
+
+In future the Custodia project plans to enhance and enrich the API to provide
+access to even more secure means of dealing with private keys, like HSM as a
+Service and other similar security systems.
+
+See the Custodia wiki for more information about the current architecture:
