[Catalyst] Anyone with PHP / Smarty Background

[Rhett Creighton]

On that note, I'm really confused when I see projects with all these 
random directories OUTSIDE the MVC directories.  Maybe they're inside 
lib/MyApp, maybe they're not.  Can somebody shed some light on this?  For 
example, in the mojomojo source, inside lib/MojoMojo, the directories are 
Model, View, Controller, Formatter, Schema .  Shouldn't Schema and 
Formatter be in Model?  

Related question 2:  I'm writing modules for Catalyst App, that I'd like 
to be accessible outside my Catalyst app.  Sure, I could just put the 
modules in my site_perl directory, but are there preferred methods, to 
keep the app bundled better?  I assume that's what these extraneous 
directories I see may be trying to achieve?

Can someone shed some light on this?  Thanks!

Rhett
