The recent look/feel updates to wiki4d are good, in general change spurrs 
activity. :)

As a step to facilitate even more activity, I just spent an hour or so 
going through a good portion of the contents of this wiki and created a 
page to list stale content:

     http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?StalePages

In the process, I found this page, which is also a good place to 
concentrate some energy:

     http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?HelpDProgress

Additionally, I added a reference to the StalePages page on this 
HelpDProgress page.

I'll be adding to the list of staleness as well as addressing some of the 
pages that I feel suited to tackle, but a group effort is called for.

Later,
Brad
