[Solar-talk] Example Solar Code

[Michael Soule]

I'm still feeling my way around Solar here, trying to get started,  
and could use a little help from anyone who has a moment.

1. Which Controller?
I'm using AquaMDB as a guide (thank you Antti!) and it differs  
greatly from the Example Skeleton App on the Solar website.  
Specifically, Aqua uses a Front Controller while Skeleton uses a Page  
Controller. I'm guessing the front controller is for larger  
application type uses and the page controller is for simple websites  
build page by page. Is this correct? Can someone elaborate more?

2. Extended Users
Is Solar flexible enough to allow the following... if so, any tips on  
implementing it?

Example: I have a User class which maps to a users table. I also have  
an Ographers class (for photographers and videographers) which  
extends the User class. It also has an ographers table which has  
extra columns for ographer-specific data. Is the Solar_Auth package  
able to adapt to this kind of approach? Is there a better approach?

Btw, please let me know if this is not the appropriate place to post  
these types of questions.
