Apparently we won't get 8, but we will get 9, eventually.

There is a blog by one of the guys working on the Flash9 project that you can read here: http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/

I've been keeping up with it. He discusses the APIs that they are using and has been asking people questions about what they think is the best way to proceed in certain areas. It looks like they will have a beta version available soon, although the scheduled release date for Flash9 is Q1 2007.
