Hey Bret,
you should use modular application layout.
In the bootstrap set the following parameter:

$front->setParam('useGlobalDefault', true);


Example of your directory structure:

docroot/
   index.php
application/
   default/
       controllers/
           IndexController.php
           ProductsController.php
   admin/
       controllers/
           IndexController.php
           ProductsController.php
       models/
       views/

Thanks,

That's a very good starting point.  The one thing that I'm unsure of is
how
to keep "products/list" different between the main site and the admin
area.
For example, /products/list should show a different page than
/admin/products/list.  Using your route, both /products/list and
/admin/products/list show the same page.

I was thinking that I'll need two products controllers.  (maybe name one
"AdminProductsController"?)  Is that still done through the router?

Thanks for your help!!
