Three remarks/replies: "As to fusebox and obfusctating the design. To be honest shit coder in, shit code out. Makes no difference what they do it in." -
yes, but Fusebox doesn't encourage people to become better developers. If anything, It makes it easier for them to "get by" with little skill for longer. "it is overkill and I avoid like the plague" - me too "it does have it's uses" - like lining a bird cage? Seriously, though - you're right. In an environment where standardization is important and the developers don't have the skills to use best practices, follow development guidlines, or write 'complex' functionality on their own, it does have merit. ~Simon Simon Horwith CTO, Etrilogy Ltd.

I'd go with the fact once you setup whichever version of fusebox you want to play with on your machine, then deploy it onto a server. You forget the behind the scenes stuff you have setup to do some of the fusebox stuff. Suddenly it's the host's fault that something ain't running right cos it works fine on *my* machine. Russ, I do think you should be charging for this, which I hope you are! As to fusebox and obfusctating the design. To be honest shit coder in, shit code out. Makes no difference what they do it in. Unfortunately FB does not help if somebody is doing some amazingly awful coding. It will make it worse from a maintenance point of view. Personally I like FB. Coming from a Software Engineering background (if you ever fly, I was part of the team that wrote the NERC aircraft collision detection system that covers most of the south east commercial traffic) it gave me an event driven model for web applications which lent itself to taking the product of requirements analysis all the way through to writing test harnesses. It depends on why you are using it. I do find in many cases it is overkill and I avoid like the plague, but should you get into a set of requirements that are into more than a couple of pages...it does have it's uses.
