Comprehensive Flex Archive Network

We need a repository where individuals can share ActionScript and Flex modules. Basically, a large collection of Flex software and documentation.

Or do we?

Take Perl. Do you want to turn your Perl script into a CGI system? Go to CPAN -- the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network -- and grab the CGI module (okay, bad example, it's included in the standard distribution, but you get the idea). CPAN has bazillions of modules, and is an invaluable resource for handling whatever you need to handle. Proofs of concepts get hammered out, new ideas get born, and thoughtful robust code is freely available. All in one practical place.

But, perhaps Flex has a higher level of focus. I've noticed that most of the modules we create require just a bit too much cohesion to be generally useful. Instead of plug-in modules that you can use to add functionality to an application, Flex tends to focus on the applications (or projects) themselves. So it's a higher-level view.
