In some cases, no.  Some of the skins ask for a fair bit more
customization than simply "unzip into pub/skins/ and set the $Skin
variable", and I'm not wanting to spend the effort to go through
a long configuration process.  And in a couple of instances, the
customizations requested actually conflict with other pmwiki.org
settings.

Beyond that, some of skins come with a skin.php file, and that file
is sufficiently hard to read so that I can't easily determine if it
has any security holes in it.  

In general, if a contributed skin or recipe isn't something that I 
can quickly install and verify its reasonableness, it's not likely 
to be activated on pmwiki.org.

Now fixed.
