Nice list… I’m back in Java land with all these frameworks.

How well does PureMVC work for you?

[off post stuff]
Sorry about not replying to your post on my blog. I don’t get emailed if comments are made on a post and mostly I just post stupid little demos when I can squeeze in time at work.

I have some work to do getting granite setup and transferring some of my work apps over to use it (I hate web services). After that, I’m def planning on checking out Prana. Spring (besides maybe hibernate) is the best thing to happen to Java, so looking forward to it. My schedule has been a bit busy as of late. I’m giving a presentation at flex360 Italy April ’08 on Cairngorm and maybe Charting. I’ll try to see if I can fit in Prana to my presentation.

Shoot me an email… wookets :at: gmail :dot: com. Otherwise, I joined the prana mailing list.

Thanks for this list! We did a code jam at our recent Flex Usergroup meeting and I learned so much more by seeing how other developers work and what tools they use along the way. I posted a similar list a few months ago.
