Hi,

First - fabtools looks great. It's exactly what I'm looking for in terms of lightweight server configuration. In fact, I have a half-finished, broken version of the same idea sitting in a git repo somewhere.

However, it's not clear from the README how complete the project is at the moment. For example: the nginx example in the README passes a dictionary of data which is (I think) intended to be combined with a template (`templates/nginx/sites/.conf`). But there's no information about how to create the templates and where to put them. It looks like the template location should be configurable, but as far as I can tell it isn't.

Sorry this issue is a bit vague - I used a specific problem (templates) to highlight a wider question. It'd be nice to know what to focus on when contributing to the project (assuming you're looking for contributions).
