Adobe has opened their ASL stuff to open-source:

http://opensource.adobe.com/

 From the abstract:

This document serves as an overview to the Adobe Source Libraries  
(ASL). The goal of ASL is to develop the technology necessary to  
construct commercial applications by assembling generic algorithms  
through declarative descriptions.

The first two significant libraries in ASL are known as Adam and Eve.  
They are components for modeling the human interface appearance and  
behavior in a software application. Adam and Eve are described along  
with related libraries.

ASL is a project within the Adobe Software Technology Lab (STLab); a  
research group chartered with increasing developer productivity and  
software quality through better technologies and education.

Adobe Begin is a sample application aimed at implementing the ideas  
expressed herein. A Widget Reference is available to assist users in  
the creation of dialogs. There are also many prebuilt dialogs  
provided from which you can learn by example.
