I would like define a goal for future versions of Flex: Goal: "Strengthening large-scale Flex applications"
http://code.google.com/p/masuland/wiki/WhatsWrongWithFlex#3.1._Strengthening_large-scale_Flex_applications As part of my research, for now I think "Building large-scale Flex applications is simple" is a false-proof statement. If you don't believe that, please have a look to all those Flex application which have to deal with more then 150 MXML files and all their worries and issues they ran into during the last couple of years: * Heavy code rewrites and refactoring * Migration from Flex 3 to Flex 4 issues * Upgrading or switching the Microarchitecture (Cairngorm, Mate, PureMVC, Robotlegs, Parsley, Spring AS, Swiz) * etc ... A more complete list of things that effect large- scale Flex applications can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/masuland/wiki/WhatsWrongWithFlex#2.2._What's_negative? Please read and disagree, -- Sebastian
