I am trying to get my head around families, and I would like a clear understanding of the various template types that are available with Revit. Some of them I understand readily like floor, and ceiling based templates but others I'm not so sure. For example:
RPC Family.rft
Generic Model Pattern based.rft
I've been reading lots of books that caution about making families dependent on hosts that may not be visible for consultants but I have not found a spread sheet or simple explanation that shows how all these templates vary, what they are useful for and what settings they are intended. Does anyone know of a link to some place that explains each type and gives some pros and cons for each?

Your REVIT HELP is one of the best resources you have - learn to use it. Under families, you will find this:
http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/Revit/enu/2012/Help/Revit_User's_Guide/0325-Build_th325/1279-Revit_Fa1279/1280-Families1280/1284-The_Fami1284
I strogly suggest you download the families guide that is pointed to there.
