RE: Top five issues your IT staff wants to address but is afraid to tell you
"There is no history of the code"
The only thing worse than "no history" is having a history of the code without any real documentation of what the code is supposed to do. I have seen too many COBOL programs with decades of change notes at the top of the code, while there is absolutely no explanation of the reason for having the program at all.
