If you are developing Rich Internet Application using ActionScript/Flash, you should check out the following framework.

AsWing is an Open Source Flash ActionScript GUI framework and library that allows developers to create UI's for their flash applications (or RIA's) more easily.
It's usage is similar to Java Swing (JFC) and it provides a set of GUI components, which we intend to implement in pure object oriented ActionScript 2. A pluggable look and feel is also being implemented as well as numerous utility classes.
Development is led by Iiley Chen who is very responsive on the mailing list:

We used AsWing to build our other product: http://www.reviewbasics.com.
If you've heard of Adobe Flex -- AsWing provides similar building blocks for developing Rich Internet Applications with a few pluses:
- It only requires Flash Player 7, while Flex 2.0 requires Flash Player 9
- AsWing is Open Source -- you can change and contribute to the source
One of the upcong tutorials will show you how to use AsWing within Neutron
