There isn't an all encompasing document as of yet that I know of, but it 
sounds like you pretty much have the jist of the idea.  It basicly boils 
down to using your brain when hiding a cache and not puting it somethere 
that might cause a problem like the recent water treatment plant thing. 
 Get permission first.  If the land needs a permit, make sure you have 
one (the fines are VERY high if you dont).  Avoid archeology sites, and 
just to be save, don't cover your cache with rocks since it just might 
accidentally be an arch site.
Basically just follow short list of rules that are on geocaching.com and 
you should be allright... Now on to your next message...

This question pops up from time to time on the list, and what it amounts 
to is everyone likes different kinds of caches, some will ONLY do caches 
that have to be hiked to, some will only do caches that are within 200 
feet of a road.  Some like puzzles, some just want to find the darn 
thing with out any games.
Basicly what it amount to is... Hide caches in a way that you would 
enjoy finding them.  Put them in a special place that you like to go and 
introduce the rest of it to us.  Twist our brains with a puzzle... put a 
cache below your window at work so you can see us find it... whatever 
makes you happy will make some other geocachers happy as well, it might 
not be the majority of cachers, but thats not really whats important.
