couple of wiki tips:

contributors should check out preferences ('my preferences' link) in 
particular the 'Watchlist' tab ... the add pages I edit/create to my 
watchlist checkboxes is a pretty handy way to keep track of the status 
of your inputs (if i've done them or have any follow up questions about 
what you've posted) they show up in bold when using 'Recent Changes' and 
there are also options to be notified (email) when a page you're 
watching has been changed. i generally just monitor the recent changes.

i've also started reading most posts on this server looking for 
indications of 'hey the docs are wrong' references and trying to follow 
up on those, but like i said ... can't do it all, so that would be great 
if those types of things come up in discussions that you try to follow 
up on them. some of you have already started doing that and i'd like to 
thank you for doing that ... if we all do a little, perhaps we can gain 
some MUCH needed momentum with getting the docs in order.
