Comment:

 I was wondering about that directory too a few months ago.  So we don't do
 anything with it currently?  Here are comments.

 I think it would be worth linking at least a few of the top-level ones to
 the wiki, and perhaps put in one of the documentation places, as some of
 the examples files there are definitely useful for templates.

 I bet some of the programming (Pyrex/SageX/Cython) examples might be
 useful too.

 I am cc:ing wdj to see if he thinks all his examples/routines from
 calculus are now in the main Sage library.

 The linalg folder is definitely pointless, as permanents are now in the
 main library.

 The worksheets folder seems pretty pointless in its current state.

 The tests directory has some things that should be added as random
 doctests for those things, though.

 The modsym directory stuff likely is already tested in that area, given
 how important it is to Sage!

 The latex_embed is obviously superfluous at this point.

 Fortran was has already discussed above.

 Finance is *really* pointless.

 The Groebner basis thing seems intriguing - perhaps should be incorporated
 in doctests for that elsewhere?

 Is the Ajax thing now very very superfluous, given how much we use it?
 It's not (that) old.

 The GSL folder is quite large compared to the rest and perhaps has some
 examples which should be combined into one big file which is doctested, if
 those sorts of tests aren't.  It would seem valuable not to lose this many
 doctests -does it currently pass?
