Some of you already get this news from blog or twitter, Adobe will rename Flex Builder as Flash Builder from upcoming major release(Gumbo).

Here is Adobe’s positioning statement;

In order to create a better distinction between the open source Flex framework and the commercial development tool, the next major version of Adobe® Flex® Builder will be named Adobe® Flash® Builder™ to provide naming consistency for the Flash family of tools and position Flash Builder as the development tool for the Adobe® Flash® Platform, supporting both the use of the Flex framework and pure ActionScript. The change is in naming only and it will not alter product functionality or require behavior change for users. The new name will also elevate the role of the Flex framework as the foundation of the Adobe Flash Builder and Flash Catalyst tools. As a key component of the Adobe Flash Platform, Adobe Flash Builder continues to be the leading professional development tool for creating rich user experiences and compelling Web applications.
