 - BuildRequires correct
 - Package handles locales with %find_lang
 - %post, %postun call ldconfig if package contains shared .so files

 - %config files marked noreplace or justified
 - No %config files under /usr
 - SysV-style init script

 - Macros in Summary, %description expandable at SRPM build time
 - Spec uses %{SOURCE#} instead of $RPM_SOURCE_DIR or %{sourcedir}
 - %global instead of %define where appropriate
 - Package containing translations BuildRequires gettext
 - File timestamps preserved by file ops
 - Parallel make
 - Spec does not use Requires(pre,post) notation

 - Web app files go in /usr/share/%{name}, not /var/www
 - Conflicts are justified
 - No external kernel modules
 - No files in /srv
