That is a common interpretation, but it is at odds with the traditional definition of MVC. Decisions, parameter checking, etc. all go in the model in MVC. The controller is just a generic thing that maps input (HTTP requests) to method calls.
Most recent frameworks take this approach, making the model the dumb part (generic object-relational mapping layer) and putting all the application logic in the controller. It seems to work fine. Catalyst's controllers would probably be called part of the model by the traditional MVC definition, but it's just semantics after all.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
