Hi Christian, Thanks for offering to help. We could use all the help we can get.
I don't know what your areas of expertise are and how much time you have, and I don't quite know how you want to organize the list, but you might be able to write code to build out the list of components. If you know Java, you could write a custom ASDoc emitter. I've written one that outputs ASDoc information in JSON format. Or you could write a Flex or FlexJS app to read the JSON files and generate the MXML you want. One thing to keep in mind is that styles work a bit differently in FlexJS than in Flex. FlexJS currently doesn't document style properties because on the JS-side the components are pretty much going to respond to every CSS style that the browser knows about. I suppose we could document which of those styles are currently implemented for SWF, but I haven't heard too many folks ask for that.
