One idea that springs to mind is a page or pages for different
sections, where there are thumbnails of all the standard example
source files, with the name clearly stated for each one, and 
a link to the zipped up source file (behind the image).

Thumbnail: You know when you've seen one of the example scene's
           and you want to use one of the features in it but 
           you cna't remember what it was called, and have deleted
           all the old images from your temporary render directory.

Filename:  So that you can go off line and find the file on your 
           own machine, render it if you like or just use the bits
           of code that you're inetersted in. 

Zipsource: So that you can d/l the source for that scene and use 
           it's features.   I beleive that some distributions
           of various patches come without all the example scenes,
           others might have deleted scenefiles accidently or 
           purposely before doing upgrades (thinking old files will
           cause problems with the upgrade perhaps). 


Maybe even include poges like this for unofficaial patches aswell.
