Currently the README is doing double duty - describing OTTR_Template and trying to serve as a reasonable starting point for a README for a course.
I've been working on a C-MOOR branded copy of OTTR_Template, and thought it would be useful to automatically replace the README when starting a course, so that those two concerns can be split up.

@cansavvy If you want to make changes to this PR, go for it - I'm handing it off to you. I thought you might have other changes you would want to make to the README content, now that's being split up. I just took the existing content and distributed it between the two files (and updated the link to point to ottrproject.org).
