Please let me know if I have this right or not:
The CFAS Administrator mappings are specifically for CFMODULE and CFINCLUDE.
They allow you to specify where templates are located by starting at the
"root" of the application, using "/". Without these mappings, you must use
relative pathing and perhaps some twisted variable assignments like
"someroot = "../../../" in order to call template using those tags.
Therefore, even though you have specified "request.cfroot" to by "/myapp",
this is not the equivalent of mappings. Without a CFAS Admin mapping, this
may very well point to the directory named "myapp" UNDER whatever CFAS Admin
"thinks" is your root. This may be different depending on how your host
sets up the servers.
Comments and non-derogatories?

Chris,
No you don't need access to the development mappings in the CFAS
administrator. I believe if you look closer you'll see that they were
talking about using variable mapping.
i.e
<cfset request.cfroot = "/myapp">
<cfset request.webroot = "/">
<cfset request.imgroot = "/images/">
or whatever you need them to be.
<cfinclude
template="#request.cfroot#/actions/act_MySuperDuperStudlyActionFile.cfm">
I'm sure you get the idea. They're there to save typing, and make migrating
from dev boxes to production boxes a little easier.
Typically they'd go in an app_Server.cfm where each box gets its own
proprietary app_server.cfm file.
