I have a couple of packages that I'm porting from the CCRMA repo. A

Not necessarily. stuff like documentation or customized configurations make
sense to *not* package separately.
Though you want to make a subpackage for docs if they're huge.
If the docs are huge (or even just large ;-) *and* they release on
a slightly different timeframe than the programs, you likely want them in
a wholly separate package. Otherwise end users end up updating one or the
other needlessly.
(ie: docs and programs packages installed. Update just the program; end user
ends up having to update both packages since the build created new versions
of both.)

Thanks all, I believe in the cases I've come up against thus far no
separate package is required as all are tiny. For conf files/default
settings I should use %config(no-replace) right?
