Modular refactoring possible?

[quote author="TheFuzzy0ne" date="1241562791"]Is there any reason why it must be done like this? Can you not just keep the site as it is, and port it over to a site on your development server one bit at a time?[/quote]

It's a constantly-evolving online game. Porting it over bit-by-bit would mean that the older parts are outdated before we're done, or maintaining two codebases for every change. Both are inacceptable due to limited developer ressources. In-place replacement is the only thing that'll work. We've already had a failed attempt at rebuilding the current application from scratch.


I know CI fairly good, and ZF not at all, but if ZF can be used in this modular way and CI can't, then I'll probably have to learn ZF as well. But before doing that I want to find out whether CI maybe _can_ do this, after all.
