Here are some basic thoughts based an a quick read:

    Webapps Policy Manual
        1.3: Lists DB App Policy twice

        3.1: Cached and regenerated application data should go in
            /var/cache/PACKAGE

        3.2.1: Config files generated via a web interface should exist
            in /etc, inasmuch as they can still be edited by hand

        5.1.1: I must have joined the list after this was discussed, but
            it seems to me that creating symlinks is far more portable
            (accross httpd servers) than creating Alias directives. Have
            you talked about the possibility of prompting for the
            document root, with /var/www as the default, for example?

        5.2: Should include HTTP_HOST environmental variable as well.
            Perhaps we should recommend explicitely facilitating support
            for multiple instances.

    PHP Policy Draft

        4.1.1: Should NOT be of the form php-pear-PEARLIBRARYNAME.

        4.1.2: "XXX: does this conflict with piotr's recommendation for
            having pear work only in /usr/local?": yes, but I think that
            he is wrong about that. ;-)
