Documentation

Under the 'you fix it once, you own it' ethos ... I own a report application and server.

The application is so poorly documented that it appears that I've been running OracleAS on this host for going on a year now - but the report tool is really using OracleAS on yet another host so the only thing the server must do is run the application.

It's a little like having a heater running full blast in the basement, venting to a room that no longer exists so there is this farging pipe hanging out of the house venting a blast of warm air into the chill of the Wisconsin winter.
