It is completely open for users to program additional guidelines and Ctan's future adjustments. The program came about when I first attempted to upload ``Yacco2'' for Ctan consideration. As Yacco2 was quite large, it took me 3 attempts to clean up my project. Depending on how you develop your project, in my case the Yacco2 project for Ctan upload is a subset of the complete system and so each uplift required the guideline assessment/purging process. This is my attempt to help both the author in getting the new system in shape for Ctan uplift and to lower the Ctan volunteers interaction to aid in publishing on their servers.

I found the bug when trying to use beamer + standalone + tikz with externalisation and a particular configuration of cfr-lm. I hope this fixes it....
