Yeah I agree about that Jochem... They aren't exactly an easy client to please... Concerns are more with how things look than how things operate... typical stuff... cut costs on the stuff that matters, pay for the fluff..
I developed the site in CF 5 and planned on having it colocated with its own server and such.. thus eliminating the full support and security need by being the only project on the box... Alarming thing is these folks have something like 13,000 photos that are on a quarterly death path for deletion and they are increasing allegedly to be maybe 35k images.. meaning maybe 70k images in a high watermark time... Utter resource consumer... daily batch imports (to date - 12k rows of data).. accomplished via Excel and a dynamic database connection... overwrite the file via FTP and run the URL script... 2 minutes later its munged... Needless to say, they are selling goods online and collecting privileged data... one hosting company just pushed the issue aside and said oh write secure applications :) yeah and someone can still CFFILE access the database and undo whatever..
