They're both correct. The Latter are controllers in the ZF MVC layer,
which follow a specific naming convention, and contain one or more
"action" methods (suffixed with "Action"). These then map to the URL --
in the above, they'd likely have a single "indexAction()" method,
allowing URLs like this:
http://example.com/login
http://example.com/register
