Ok, now I'm a bit further along... I've added the code to my Cake project, but I'm confused as to which parts I need to change to stop it conflicting with the 1.2 validation class. I was almost tempted to simply delete the standard Validation class and overwrite it with this one, but that would cause other problems down the road, I'm sure.
Can you advise me on which bits I need to rename/change/delete to make this work correctly?
