You're right any developer should. Doesn't mean they will be able to. And why bother sitting at a meeting where someone dictates those things to you, you can pop on the web and learn everything you need to know. Methodology is not something you need, I used to be against fusebox because at first glance it's daunting, but once I started using it I haven't gone back. There are literally thousands of people who use fusebox, and I am sure quite a few people who use some of the others, having these little tiffs back and forth do nothing to help coding, fusebox has made a central website where you can get all the information you need to have an out of the box methodology, if you choose to make up your own and teach other people your proprietary methodology, that's fine, more power to you, but I don't have to do that. I know if I need more developers on a project I don't have to waste time teaching them from the ground up, they can learn on their own.

Yes, but any developer worth his salt should be able to pick up a *documented* methodology and work within it given an hour or so to look over the documentation. I was on a project, where the first thing they did was have me sit down with the lead developer. He dictated everything from the directory structure of the project to the casing (I.E. upper / lower case of the letters ) to use for SQL statements. I took notes, and there was never a problem. In addition to a methodology, properly documented code should be easily picked up.
