Dear you all,
I DON'T WANT to start any flame here but the code quality of phpEsp is rather
poor. Lots of replicated code ("go to management" links, authentification,
queries,...). I raise a hand here because one of my managers totally
disagrees with the use of PHP stuff (because they have coldfusion licenses)
and I fear he's gonna watch the code and say "Mr Champailler you 're just a
very bad coder, code is way too hard to maintain". I just tell that to you so
that you think about it before going that direction. I had an enormous
advantage with phpEsp in hand : it's there, it works and it allowed me to
work on the specification _before_ writing too much code, just because it was
there as a very good basis for the job. Unfortunately, I just realize that
this advantage it's pretty hard to explain (dollars?) to a manager
(although a technical one).
I'm stating the obvious, but now that I see how easy it is to forget it, I
just feel the urge to talk about it :)
So this was more to share an experience rather than to criticize things I
didn't make myself. Don't go mad, I love you all :)
