There will not be a v8.5 IDE, they have gone with your second suggestion (holding off for v9).

Reading between the lines - we'll have to pay for the 8.5 IDE, or are you taling about an alpha of the flash 9 IDE? - If it's 8.5 then great, like I'm going to be able to convince my manager I need to upgrade everyone in my team again. Adobe did the same with CS and CS2..... Looking forward to Flash 8.75 and Flash 8.9 What was the reasoning behind not holding off the release and putting this in 8, or waiting and pushing it in 9? Should people who haven't yet upgraded to 8 hold off for the 8.5 upgrade? Will you still operate the same upgrade from any version policy? I need to carefully plan my software budget and you guys aren't helping.
