Once we release the old template gallery will become a redirection to the new static page. > 3) What templates are worth inclusion?

They do not necessarily go into the final binary distribution, but they should all be tagged and tested against with every release of PredictionIO. > 5) We need someone to file Infra Jira’s to get repos.
