Well, I have my incomplete Witch Handbook on the handbooks forum here already: http://www.minmaxboards.com/index.php?topic=480.0

And here are two other threads on paizo talking about and linking to the OPs' respective witch handbooks:

The Handbook Index has some PF handbooks already.

@StreamOfTheSky: Thanks for the heads up. Not having to hunt those thread links down made it much easier to compile.

@Prime: Thanks for the heads up. I had glanced but didn't notice any.

Hopefully this separation will make it easier for users to find 3.5 vs Pathfinder materials instead of having to dig through 1 big set of lists.

Seems to me that the trend so far is generally 3.5 or Pathfinder and not usually using both.

There's a "Pathfinder" section in Base Classes.

More that they're analysed separately.

So far though, it only has the Pathfinder-specific base classes (e.g. Magus, Oracle) rather than any guides for the Pathfinder versions of 3.5 classes, like a PF Paladin handbook. So I support this guide.

This I agree with; for a 3.P game it will vary too much based on what material the DM allows to mix or which rules/wordings take precedence over which, so better to write handbooks that treat the systems separately and anyone playing 3.P can simply open them both side-by-side to make their selections.

The Magus guide doesn't work, this version does.

Just spent some time cross referencing guides from Gitp's [PF] Optimization Guides Compendium and found a whole boatload of guides that we missed. Keep in mind that I can't vouch for the quality of any of them except for Cieyrin's The Gunslinger's Handbook, Psyren's Sharpening the Mind: A Guide to the Pathfinder Soulknife, and The Hangover Cleric Build/Mini-Guide by Akal Saris. All of those guys are well known quality optimizers on Gitp.
