Comments on: pureMVC presentation at LFPUG (London) tonight. http://ifeedme.com/blog/?p=27 Flex, actionscript, mxml, and cute puppies Tue, 08 Sep 2009 18:57:29 +0200 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Jim http://ifeedme.com/blog/?p=27&cpage=1#comment-52 Jim Fri, 01 Feb 2008 19:37:34 +0000 http://ifeedme.com/blog/?p=27#comment-52 I just can't make up my mind on this one Neil! I have the feeling that the essential barebones Cairngorm code is shorter, and probably worth showing a very brief example. However, that could just be my very own mixture of bias and pure ignorance in this particular case! New frameworks all look pretty frightening to me until I've spent a bit of time writing something with them, made a few mistakes etc etc. It was in fact your tutorials that helped me overcome that with Cairngorm, thanks! Your presentation did have prettier pictures as well! :) I just can’t make up my mind on this one Neil!

I'm giving a talk on the same topic in Milan and Edinburgh later this year so I'm tempted to drop the code from the presentation altogether, concentrating more on getting people familiar with the concepts. Feel free to drop me a line if you have any suggestions :) Shame I missed this talk! Hi Jim,
