[FRIAM] A 9D model for a chaos-hyperchaos transition

Scholarpedia seems like a good idea but IMHO is let down by it's complete
lack of content. I clicked on a dozen links in the three encyclopedias they
are hosting (the encyclopedia of dynamical systems sounded fun) and all I
got was canned messages saying "This article has been reserved by Prof.
Such-and-Such" or "This article will be written by the end of August 2006"
(huh?)

Doesn't seem the most promising start....
