I just said, that I'm working with the application from my late colleague. All forms classes are in one library, all dialogs in another, all biz objects in another and some extra class libraries.
But since there are lots of forms and dialogs in this application, each library has more than 20 classes (I haven't counted them, actually).
Now I don't want to change this organization right now, because I may have some reference problems, AFAIK, if I start moving things around.
On the other hand, there is a bigger chance for corruption now and more at stake to lose.

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
