<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=343184813-25072008><FONT face=Arial
size=2>Personally speaking I have been working with PureMVC framework for almost
one year, for various projects of variable size. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=343184813-25072008><FONT face=Arial
size=2>For example I've used it for a long term medium/big RIA Software for an
International Company, it is so clean and flexible and easy to work with from
start to the end of a project, easy to maintain and to update. (by the way
it is thanks to Design Pattern, the credit does not go really to PureMVC in
this, it is not a surprise that they are Design Patterns are so popular..).<BR>I
must confess that after several month of dev, PureMVC is absolutely amazing in
the way it organise your project, it is very strict about MVC, but also allows
you a lot of flexiblity even if you use Flex modules and more complex elements.
When improvement are made to the Framework you do not have to modify your
code </FONT></SPAN><SPAN class=343184813-25072008><FONT face=Arial size=2>which
is very good comparing to Cairngorm about which I've read that people
complained.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=343184813-25072008><FONT face=Arial
size=2>Everything is very well optimized and can be pushed even forward. <SPAN

a specific point .<SPAN class=343184813-25072008><FONT face=Arial size=2>A

<P class=MsoNormal>Hello everyone! Moses, you are a
champion!!<BR><BR><o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I’ve merely started to “get” the right way to program in
actionscript and admittedly have a long road ahead of me. This is the
first and only programming language that I’ve studied and it has taken me many
years to reach a point of trying to wrap my head around “design
patterns”. I’ve recently made the commitment to focus on PureMVC and
GoASAP as my foundational frameworks moving forward with application
development. That being said, I really need a mentor to lean on here as
I get started on some projects. We’re not building anything complex like
games or huge RIAs – mainly our focus is on common websites with cool
multimedia galleries and cms back-ends. We also of course want slick
transitions leveraging GoASAP or simply piggy-backing on Donovan Adam’s great
work with HydroTween.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>We’re really a design firm first although we staff
programmers, not enough are knee-deep actionscript talent. If you’re
available over the next few months and don’t work in a completely opposite
time-zone, I’d love to hear from you. I should hopefully not consume too
much of anyone’s time – maybe a handful of hours a week. Let me know
your rates and how you’d be willing to collaborate. Ideally we’d share
an SVN on a job and you’d basically go through, help me with any shortfalls
and steer me in the right direction.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Thank you very much for your time, it is greatly
appreciated. I hope to hear from some comrades soon.<o:p></o:p></P>
