I used this from the beginning of it and knew Chris.
Did he ever get the dependency of Eclipse out of it?
That is the problem I had with it was it needed Eclipse to build and
relied on metadata.

Quoting Ramon Donnell <[email protected]>:
Have a look at http://www.potomacframework.org/. Development has stalled
since flex 4.1, but has much potential.
Potomac includes OSGI like eclipse plugin, extension points, DI,
bundle/module management, assets management.
I've been using it on a large enterprise flex project with 80+ bundles with
lots of success.

I think there is _huge_ value in your bundle project... I've worked a lot
with Parsley and have to say that in some circumstances IoC can exacerbate
problems with class loading in Flash. Having a mechanism to manage runtime
assets is a natural next step (IMO) in the whole module / marshal plan saga.
