BTW, I found the original PFC proposal [1] and it does not deal with having documentation and tests *at all*. It just outlines the code peer-review process after which the package can be declared PFC. I don't remember anyone initiating this process, either.

I am strictly opposed to anything being declared a PFC without a full test suite and good docs. Reasoning is obvious: test suites help catch any BC breaks as well as accidental introduction of new bugs when fixing old ones. Documentation defines API. Greg
