## Functionality Review
32-
33-
There are several things that could be addressed in a PLIP review depending on the nature of the PLIP itself.
34-
This is by no means an exhaustive list, but a place to start.
35-
Things to think about when reviewing:
36-
37-
## General
38-
39-
- Does the PLIP actually do what the implementers proposed?
40-
Are there incomplete variations?
41-
- Were there any errors running buildout?
42-
Did the migration(s) work?
43-
- Do error and status messages make sense?
44-
Are they properly internationalized?
45-
- Are there any performance considerations?
46-
Has the implementer addressed them if so?
47-
48-
## Bugs
49-
50-
- Are there any bugs?
51-
Nothing is too big nor small.
52-
- Do fields handle whacky data?
53-
How about strings in date fields or nulls in required?
54-
- Is validation up to snuff and sensical?
55-
Is it too restrictive or not restrictive enough?
56-
57-
## Usability Issues
58-
59-
- Is the implementation usable?
60-
- How will novice end users respond to the change?
61-
- Does this PLIP need a usability review?
62-
If you think this PLIP needs a usability review,
63-
please change the state to "please review" and add a note in the comments.
64-
- Is the PLIP consistent with the rest of Plone?
65-
For example,
66-
if there is control panel configuration,
67-
does the new form fit in with the rest of the panels?
68-
- Does everything flow nicely for novice and advanced users?
69-
Is there any workflow that feels odd?
70-
- Are there any new permissions and do they work properly?
71-
Does their role assignment make sense?
72-
73-
## Documentation Issues
74-
75-
- Is the corresponding documentation for the end user,
76-
be it developer or plone user,
77-
sufficient?
