So Anthony Cintron and I were chatting the other day and he mentioned
one idea to possibly expand on the libraries audience could be to
decouple the code architecture from PureMVC and possible create a
Factory pattern that would allow the developer to hook up the AS3
pattern framework of their choice. I have been thinking about this
since he mentioned it and while I think it would add to the appeal I
have to be honest, I'm coming up with nothing in terms of ideas on how
to practically and simply do this.

My initial thought was to just bite the bullet and make separate
versions for each, but he pointed out what a terrible (and completely
backwards) idea that would be.

So I'm reaching out to the group to get your thoughts and ideas. If
your job were to ask you to create a standard reusable code library
that could be custom attached to either PureMVC, Cairngorm, Mate or
another AS3 pattern based framework, how would you approach the task?
What if you had an existing library bound to Cairngorm and you were
asked to add the ability to toggle between it and PureMVC. Is it even
possible without separating the implementations?
