I'm +0 with similar concerns to Sebastian. What should we do to ensure 
that this folder doesn't become a long list of unmaintained scripts that 
are not used.

Is there a way to categorise them? Maybe only show scripts which have 
specifically been reviewed and updated during the last release. (Which 
would involve workshop presenters looking at them)

Warm regards, Cameron
