Some of the new metrics can't be satisfied. I doubt that all dists can 
"use" 5 or more other CPAN dists. I think some of the metrics should be 
optional (uses_recursion, nice_code_layout, reuses_code). You shouldn't 
punish the people (like me) who don't like the code layout you like.

You also should mention what "docs_make_sense" is! What are the rules 
for "docs_make_sense".

It would be nice, if you could show what spellings are wrong (hint: 
spelling is written with *two* "l" ;-) )


Cheers,
Renee
