I rarely respond to people who use "noob" in a non-ironic way, but whatever: ZF's file and directory structure is not appreciably at odds with namespaces; it is different but (as it works pre-5.3) complementary.

If you look at Symfony2, it can handle both namespaces and Zend-named objects without significant trouble. ZF 2 will change it because namespaces are now available, but the old style of library importing will certainly persist because it has to.
