If you're running Buildbot-0.8.x, then you can do that by putting your
templates in your master's basedir.  See
http://docs.buildbot.net/latest/manual/cfg-statustargets.html#configuration

Things are quite a bit different in nine -- the UI has, indeed, moved,
and is now implemented in JS (well, CoffeeScript, close enough).  If
you're interested in working on that project, we'd love the help!
