Should I use classes with static functions or namespaces to better organise a PHP project growing in size?
I come from a Java background and like having static variables/functions available.
The 2 features are completely different from each other.
The static keyword is to make a property or method available without an actual class instance.

On the other hand Namespaces are for organization and avoiding naming collisions.
