I've known a couple of ppl who have recently switched from Cairngorm to Mate, mostly for AIR apps. I’ll be keen to see how you’re going.

That's what's cool - to think that in 1979 a solution was found to an abstract problem that is still relevant today.

But anyway, I completely agree about disregarding the "pureness" of the implementation. My MVC implementations are very loose. For example, I always give a reference of the model to the view which is very handy for reading its data. I also rarely have more than one view, and that simplifies things a lot too. And if the project is not big, I might skip the controller altogether and embed it into the view. Again, not a pure implementation but helps improve simplicity. KISS comes before MVC in my opinion.
