Maybe this is a wontfix, but I thought it might be good to move the included scripts to the hubot-scripts project. Possibly leaving help...

I realize they're useful for newbies to see examples, but it also has some drawbacks:
- if you don't want some of the included scripts, you have to delete them from your copy instead of just disabling them
- your own custom scripts are mixed in with core scripts, creating no separation
- when following instructions like [these](http://martinciu.com/2011/11/deploying-hubot-to-heroku-like-a-boss.html), the scripts are the only part of "our hubot" that isn't really our code/config

Again, maybe these aren't drawbacks, I'd just personally love for a more spartan starting environment (the current core scripts could always be enabled by default via hubot-scritps).
