First impression is that Caliburn.Micro is nice. Documentation looks good at
a glance, and there's a "hello world" walkthrough.

Anyone with a framework should have a look at Caliburn.Micro. Including
binaries and a basic walkthrough on how to get going is essential if you
want people to actually use it. So many things out there want you to
download the source and figure it out for yourself, which is fine for an
experimental/hobby codebase but for something mature/stable it has to be
easy.

+1 Caliburn.Micro.

thanks for the link TJ!

ReactiveUI looks like it's still a bit immature. I grabbed the source from
github and found all of the target frameworks are in a single solution. I
don't have the WP7 stuff installed on this machine so those projects won't
load. I am missing Moles framework and Pex (which when I last looked was
still not ready for consumption...). There is not much documentation on the
main site that I could see so I'm putting this in the "to watch" basket.
