Hi, Unlike Alex and Carol who have worked deep with Flex and probably other SDKs, I have an application-developer background (which I hope proves useful down the road when growing Flex for application development), so I have found working, what I call, "behind the scenes", to be a bit overwhelming.
This is especially true for Mustella which is a very complex thing. Getting an event-driven, asynchronous framework like Flex to have an automated test structure is no easy feat. I, personally, am very grateful to have such a community to help, no matter how much time you can spare, make Flex better by having a robust and complete test system.
