Ok I see your point regarding the conference, that was a bit annoying for me too.
I'm still confused about your coding standards point, considering that the core framework is pretty consistent, just that those standards are mostly not written down. Also, for future reference, you can copy the Gii templates and edit them for your needs, the default templates are simply meant as reasonably sensible defaults.
Regarding the coding standards - I meant on these things: no spaces after/before '=>'/ or dots for concatenating strings, mixing camel and snake cases sometimes, naming of certain classes/methods weren't so clear etc.
Thanks for the Gii templates; will definitely have a look at that.
