 static.

 gitweb url's aren't really static, unless you want to point to the repos
 themselves. I was thinking of pointing to a particular code sample would
 be more useful than just saying "xxx uses stem. go search for the place
 where stem is being used in it's repo".

 In case we point to a particular line of code in a gitweb repo, then it
 wouldn't really be "static", since the code changes so much. This is
 partly why I wanted an /examples dir.

 tutorial if you don't mind (it's a very neat little script).

 Sure :)

 > For the examples section though I think that we'll want to use
 production code.

 What is "production" code? Do /user/* repos count? Are there any apps that
 use stem in production? Does metrics-tasks count? Some of the metrics
 tasks were made when parts of stem's metrics-lib wasn't finished. I don't
 think there's enough motivation to go and refactor those metrics-tasks
 since we probably won't run those tasks again.
