What is Mate?
Mate is a tag-based, event-driven Flex framework.
Flex applications are event-driven. Mate framework has been created to make it easy to handle the events your Flex application creates.
Mate allows you to define who is handling those events, whether data needs to be retrieved from the server, or other events need to be triggered.
In addition, Mate provides a mechanism for dependency injection to make it easy for the different parts of your application to get
the data and objects they need.

Version 0.9 has been released. Thanks to Cliff Meyers and Nick Matelli for their contributions!
What's changed:
- Added PropertyGetter tag
- Added "useFault" property to MockRemoteObject: when true, any unhandled error in the mock service call will dispatch a fault; when false, error will be rethrown. Default behavior is useFault=true and is backwards compatible
- Added support for localization (BabelFx framework)

360|Flex has posted the latest session I gave in Washington DC. The session was called "Breaking down your application with Mate".
Unless you attended 360, you'll need to pay $2.5 to view it. Disclaimer: this is all managed by 360|Flex.

If you are building a Mate project with Maven, you can add the dependency as follows:
In the repositories section:
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>mate-repository</id>
<url>http://mate-framework.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/maven</url>
<releases><enabled>true</enabled></releases>
<snapshots><enabled>false</enabled></snapshots>
</repository>
</repositories>
In the dependencies section:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.asfusion.mate</groupId>
<artifactId>mate-framework</artifactId>
<version>0.8.9</version>
<type>swc</type>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
As new versions of Mate are released, the maven folder will be updated to contain them, so you will just need to change the version on the dependency node.

Pete Mackie has written a great tutorial on how to create a photo gallery on InsideRIA. It not only covers the basics, but also the use of the Presentation Model pattern. It uses PHP on the backend for those who always wonder how that part is done, but it should still apply to all backends that use remoting.
