Hmmm, this kind of sounds like us wanting to be control freakish about
stuff.

It doesn't hurt for us to have basic sanity checks (eg is the site
still online?, actively updated?, fairly accurate?).

But be careful of the desire to impose strict *requirements* much past
that. Guidelines might be ok, but hard requirements (with no
flexibility)
might be more harmful/issue-causing than otherwise.

That being said... that's just a general concept. :)
