I'd like to personally put a request in for the developers to put more comments in code.
I think this has probably been one of the most difficult aspects of working with Able so far for our team. Especially when it comes down to figuring out able-specific coding and methods.

Re: Dev comments in code
It might be helpful from our perspective to have an example or two of where you mean. Sometimes when you are too familiar with a project, you have trouble knowing what areas will be hard for others to follow.

Re: Dev comments in code
~/Admin/Orders/Default.aspx is a pretty important page from a developer perspective. It makes for a huge resource of information for how certain things get done related to an order.
It has some commenting, but key functions like the OrderGrid_RowDataBound, OrderGrid_DataBound, BatchButton_Click have very few comments if any.
~/Admin/Marketing/Discounts/EditDiscountScope.aspx has very few comments.
~/Admin/Catalog/Browse.aspx.cs also has very few comments. It's the best place to learn how the product-category relationship is maintained but isn't very well commented.
My experience has found that the code comments are pretty good. There's a few files (mentioned above) that are less than stellar, but overall I've been pretty pleased. Everyone's mileage is different though, so more is always better.
