[Zope-PTK] where to put new ZClasses

Hi Zopistas out there.
I'm playing around with the DemoPortal product to make it fit
my needs. I want to introduce new ZClasses. My users should be able
to add instances of this classes to their "MyStuff-area" = Members/xyz/
Where shall I put the new ZClass?
Into the portal class?
Or direct into the DemoPortal Folder?

thanx for your help
Philipp Dunkel

How about 'None of the above'? Create your own product, and place
them there. The DemoPortal.zexp gets changed a couple times a week. If
you place your classes in there, you'll end up losing them and have to
rebuilt them quite often.

OK Mike, thats clear.
But the DemoPortal fits almost exactly my needs.
Even if I create my own product (which looks quite near
the DemoPortal product) I don't know where to put my classes.
I just wondered if they need to be beneath the portal-class,
because one is creating a portal-instance to get a portal up n running.
