All the ppl I know who used Parsley said "oh but you have dependency injection"  "oh but you have encapsulation of this" "oh but you have decoupled code"...  I say "ever hear of a singleton? flex doesn't need dependency injection if you are smart"  "why encapsulate?  don't your developers know how to use the Flex SDK?, what are you afraid of writing your own code"  and to the ppl who blather on about decoupled code... I laugh in their faces and ask them "ever hear of Events?"

But I believe that Flex is a great framework all by itself, and if you need an extra package to do MVC, you don't understand what MVC is in the first place, and no matter what you do, it won't be good.
