Does this imply that the code in the ofb 'application' subdir is part of the
framework
Not exactly, framework and applications are different things.
Framework is the core system of the framework. It can be seen as the technical
part
Applications are the basic applications to demonstratre framework power and to implement a basic
ERP/CRM/E-Business/E-Commerce/SCM/MRP/CMMS/EAM/etc. They can be seen as the core business part. They are used by customers
applications.
Specialpurpose are not fundamental applications which are using basic applications. For instance the POS use order, accounting,
parties, etc.
Hot-deploy is a mean to plug new applications by reusing existing ones and preventing to duplicate code. You can put there any code
which will replace same existing code or/and you can add you own code (not only java).
and the 'hot-deploy' subdir is for custom user applications that
use ofb as a framework?
Not only you can use specialpurpose too. Hot-deploy applications are loaded last (after specialpurpose) so they override all
existing same code. Specialpurpose and hot-deploy have different goals.

There's no reason to ever move anything from hot-deploy to
