            Hi there,

Have some questions about the best practice way of designing apps.

I'm building a simple email server preferences application. And I've created two 
components. One for handling the login (which hits amfphp and ldap on the backend) and 
one for loading and changing/saving the user prefs (which also hits amfphp and ldap on 
the backend).

There are really only two "states", login handilng, and prefs changing.

Question 1: Is it best to use States or ViewStacks to deal with changing "app states"?

on to my second question...

The login component is sorta self sufficient. It can handle good logins and bad ones. and 
if it's a good login can switch the current state to the preferences state (as viewstates are 
what i'm currently working with.) But when i get to the email preferences state, it wants to 
know things from the login component, like email and password. 

Question 2: Is it good practice to have components be able to talk and share information 
with one another? And if so, how do you keep them around and reference them if you're 
using viewstates?

Thanks,
mark
