I have worked with C# + ASP.NET and liked it very much. It felt more similar to Python than Java; and ASP.NET rules! :) WRT your original question: Organize the code as you would in a C# project unless it feels unnatural. Sorry about that last condition but it's the best I can do[1]. :) Get Bicycle Repair Man[2] or another refactoring browser and hack away!
