ensure it makes a plugin, not that it can be installed and deployed.
Folks,
here is what I think:
1) I suggest to fix what is broken now. So that people who come across
examples would not have to deal with issues. We may debate for other few
days (hopefully not more), and all plugin devs will be suffering during
this time. Also, according to Matt,

Because it doesn't make much sense for a plugin developer to have scripts
to build packages for installation on slave nodes. For default template
it's better to have something minimalistic and the rest of the tasks
commented, otherwise it may create a lot of confusion.

Talking about templates I mean plugins generated by FBP from the
`templates` folder using command you mentioned above.
Why not to extend (not replace) template-generated plugins with additional
data to provide right coverage?

Ilya,
What do you mean by "templates" the plugin which is create by just "fpb
--create plugin-name"?
It doesn't cover enough, package installation and all range of tasks
executions.
Thanks,

Igor, i completely agree, actually plugin examples is almost a copy-paste.
The only thing i see useful in the built plugins example is the ability to
point some code lines, discussing plugin design and writing documentation.
Why not to generate this examples automatically from templates?
Also, as
Hi,
Plugin examples mustn't be removed, those plugins are part of integration
tests for fuel plugin builder, which should be able to build any version of
plugin.
So there are two ways to solve the problem:
1. Before test run update compatibility matrix for plugins automatically.
2. Continue fixin
Igor,
I agree with folks, that we have to fix plugin. You didn't mention any real
reasons, why we should change workflow with example-plugin right now in the
middle of release. If we are keeping support of the example plugin in 9.0
it should work from box w/o any black magic in other places.

Yet another example [1] of why a dummy/example plugin should be integrated
in the Fuel CI process: the current version of Fuel is broken for (almost)
all plugins since a week at least and no one noticed.

What about maintaining a dummy plugin (eg running only one or two very
simple tasks) as a standalone project for the purpose of QA?
IMO it would make more sense than having those example plugins in the
fuel-plugins project...

Nonsense. First, people usually create them via running `fpb --create
plugin-name` that generates plugin boilerplate. And that boilerplate
won't contain that changes.
Second, if people ain't smart enough to change few lines
+1 to maintain example plugins. It is easy enough and really lowering
barriers for people who just begin create plugins.

Igor,
It seems you are proposing an IKEA approach to plugins. Take Fuel's
example plugin, add in the current Fuel release, and then build it. We
maintained these plugins in the past, but now it should a manual step

No, this is a wrong road to go.
What if in Fuel 10 we drop v1 plugins support? What should we do?
Remove v1 example from source tree? That doesn't seem good to me.
Example plugins are only examples. The list of supported releases must
be maintained on system test side, and system tests must injec
