If I think I know what you're asking, I personally either dispatch
events and have other classes listen for them (but avoid tight coupling
between classes as much as possible), or sublcass existing classes and
rely on the events they already dispatch.  For example, in one class
listen for the updateComplete event in another UIComponent class and
then respond accordingly.

Nah, a bunch of us created Flash_Tiger on Yahoo! and we're talking over
there.  This list is about as active as Flash_Tiger, but posts are
probably now divided between the two.  We created it because of the
archive and stability problems with this list, but not to necessarily
compete with it.  Come on over, we've got Adobe engineers there and over
300 members.  You can subscribe via e-mail delivery only, e-mail digest,
or use the Web interface. Come on over and try us out free with no
obligation for 30 days.  After 30 days you'll need to either feed the
tigers or unsubscribe. :)
