good catch.


What I'd tend to do is have 'MyApp::Schema::Foo' and then

Fair enough, and good to know.

The only reason I did it that way is because I'm new to Catalyst and thats
what the tutorial suggests

from the Calalyst::Manual::Tutorial
"First, create a directory to hold the class:

    $ mkdir lib/MyAppDB



so probably teaching newbs bad design isnt the best idea....


Thanks!
