Configuring your Flex app for different environments got you down? Tired of -services? Wish you had something like Spring (or ColdSpring) to configure your Flex apps? If so, you need some Fling!

In a few recent posts, there's been discussion of the validity and purpose of what's called the "Gateway" pattern in a ColdFusion application's object model.

This September, I'll be joining a neighbor of mine in riding the MS150 bike ride in New Bern, NC. We'll both be doing the 100 mile ride, and we'll be doing it two days in a row. If you'd care to support Multiple Sclerosis research and treatment by sponsoring me in this effort, I'd be very grateful.
You can find my online donation form at http://www.nationalmssociety.org/site/TR?px=3903375&pg=personal&fr_id=5520.
"Having multiple sclerosis means that you may suddenly have blurry vision. Or that your memory will fail you for no apparent reason. Or that you may not always be able to walk, let alone ride a bike. The symptoms of MS are different, and devastating, for everyone - the only certainty is that it will affect yet another person every hour of every day."
My brother-in-law was diagnosed with MS three years ago, and it's a disease that scares me silly. Please take this opportunity to support the search for a cure by sponsoring me or another rider.

Ever wanted to have a Model-Glue event decide, at runtime, which views should be included? It's a necessary evil when dealing with some aspects of CMS-style applications, but it's possible to do so cleanly with Model-Glue 2.0 and a little help from ColdSpring. Read how at the Model-Glue blog.

I've got a challenge in a current project that seems to go beyond normal skinning in Flex: I need to let a user choose sets of icons, labels, and other UI elements and have the application immediately react.

Over on the Model-Glue blog, I've put up a team portrait of those involved in Model-Glue as Simpsons characters. Too fun!

Marginally business related: I won't be doing any work in the month of December (2007) because my wife will be giving birth to our first child, who I learned today will be a girl!
