Now that I've thought about it more, I agree with you... and since I only get a small handful of comments a year from users on contributed OS Tepmlates... it wouldn't be any benefit to the CentOS Project anyway.

I'll just remove them... and continue to make them for my own use until the GA comes out.  Sorry to have wasted your time.

So far as explaining how they are built and getting them automated by CentOS... I guess you weren't grasping the whole concept.  These are "contributed" OS Templates.  As  previously stated the OpenVZ Project does provide official OS Templates for a number of distros including CentOS.  That might be something CentOS is rightly interested in automating... but the contributed ones... it would be like Ubuntu wanting to take over the build process for Mint... if that is any more clear.

TYL,
