Even though I was fighting mail servers today, I managed to put some time aside
for long-needed CPANTS improvements. (And I really have to thank the
Catalyst/DBIC-guys for their wonderfull tools which made me finish a big
project on time (more on this later...))

So, the new CPANTS metrics are:

    * docs_make_sense
    * mentions_kwalitee
    * uses_version_control
    * reuses_code
    * uses_recursion
    * correct_speling
    * nice_code_layout

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" ;-) )
