In an ideal world there would be documentation... But I've yet to see that
ideal world.

What's your opinion on this?

Our Web hosting company built a few custom cf application for this company
before I came on board. The Webhosting company developed these applications
within a multi-application framework and not self contained application.
I've done mostly MVC and Fusbox and I'm getting up to speed on ModelGlue,
Cold Spring, etc. 

I asked the hosting company if they had any documentation.  Not of the
methodology, but just something that would layout some structure to their
framework. Without any guidance, it will be an additional challenge to
follow their application framework flow/process.
They said they don't have any documentation, yet ehy've given me full acess
to all the Cf code and the related tables.  Shouldn't they provide some
basic roadmap?

It's been my experience that any good development team would have some
documentation on large projects they create. Isn't it good development
practice to leaves clues for developers replacing original coders or
developers that want to scale an existing application? My thoughts are
they're trying to protect their potential future revenue stream from the
company.

Granted, I'm not a seasoned CF-OO developer yet, but shouldn't they have
discussed the this in more detail?

Thanks
