Hi Wally,

Not sure if you are interested or not but you might want to check out our 
product ZoomFlex (www.straker.co.nz) which is made for converting large legacy 
apps into CF / Flex. Whilst this is a commerical product and may / may not be 
right for you it auto generates a CF / MXML framework for each appliation that 
you may get some ideas from.

We spent a long time developing ZoomFlex and whilst we looked at Cairngorm as 
the framework in the end took the key concepts and rolled our own "easier to 
understand" Flex framework.
