Andrew,

While CairnGorm is an excellent framework it can be a bit heavy to digest
and use, especially if you are new to Flex.

I have a friend that broke down some popular frameworks on his blog entry -
http://booleanbetrayal.com/2008/02/06/drinking-the-framework-kool-aid/.

Ultimately these frameworks, as Cameron indicated, are collections of design
patterns.  Joe Berkovitz's MVCS Blueprint is just a modification to the MVC
pattern.

I would recommend that you either try the MVCS pattern or just MVC which
almost everyone has learned along the way.  Have a singleton controller
object which is where you share your Services or RemoteObjects.  Do the
event handling for them there.  Then in your views bind to the data also
shared through the controller.  Fairly clean and very simple.  Which is what
you need as a beginner and really what most projects require.  The heavier
frameworks are useful if you are to design a very large and complex
application.
