Looking at the page source it appears to have been written using asp.net, which is one of the most common web technologies in existence. I didn’t see anything in the post about the code being undocumented. Documented or not, a person without technical skills won’t know how to change things. It is unfortunate that a full admin interface wasn’t created but I don’t think that should necessarily be put on the programmer if they weren’t tasked with doing so. Sounds like he just wants to be rid of the hassle of running the site, which might be understandable if it takes a lot of time to run with little coming back in return.
