Thank you I think my difficulty is that of choices and not knowing the best practices when it comes to developing ZF2 application.
There are several modules paths that I can take to help me get started to provide User Object, Email sign up verification, and ACL: ZfcBase -> ZfcUser -> CdliTwoStageSignup -> BjyAuthorize CsnUser -> CsnAuthorization My options for each one are: use composer.php to install the modules, then extend them via writing my own modules. fork the modules, and maintain them as my own separate repositories and projects, use composer to update my own dependencies use the modules as a start of my application - (do a non-svn non-composer copy of the modules into my own application's modules folder and then modify them to my application's needs) ignore everything, start from scratch, write my own modules, possibly using above modules for examples or guidance Then, decide how I want to keep the modules I create in svn: keep both my modules and my main application in the same repository keep separate repositories for my main application and one each for each of my modules pick and choose - my main application+some modules go into one repository, the rest are kept in other repositories What I can do also is use git branches for various ways I want to go and decide which way is best for me. Right now I have a lot of different options I can go with. I prefer to prune the choice tree as early as I can. Once the choices or non-choices of modules, the choices of using the modules, and the choices of keeping the modules in svn are behind me, I can relax and start focusing on ZF2 and my application's needs. Having done lots of work on CoolCsn already, I am considering going with choices 2 - c - i. I think it will be the easiest way in terms of maintenance and my experience. I also think that Zfc packages had more eyes on it and probably follow ZF2 constructs more closely. They also have more modules, more configuration files and more overhead than CoolCsn. That is another road I can take. Alternatively I can try to dissect the modules and do my own. Can you help me navigate this space, please, or do you think I am doing fine?
