Welcome to IWETHEY!

New That is NOT what I said
I group code by "task". That is the most stable grouping the majority of the time. OO'ers like to group by nouns and hierarchical (or "subtype") noun taxonomies.

Clients
Users

New re: Poor dichotomy on which to base your opinion of OO
Generally OO groups by noun, but when methods get too big or complicated then it creates task-based classes that tend to more resemble procedural modules.
