Will anyone else second Larry?

Hi Michelle, 

Because this is a first, I will address your points.

almost none of the PHP community knows about them?  When they are designed 
not to conflict?  How do my PSRs, that pay reverence to the existing PSRs 
by extending them, devalue FIG PSRs?

The idea that google will choose to show my PSRs over FIG's PSRs is kind of 
absurd.  And, the case you present is also kind of absurd since I refer 
directly to the FIG PSRs in the documentation, and anyone arriving at my 
PSRs would be directed to FIG PSRs if that is what they were looking for.  
And like I already said, I'm perfectly willing to add a header "Not a FIG 
PSR" if desired.

Don't worry about it - it is truly something you can not fix.
