Adobe and Macromedia CEOs Speak Out
Here is a short piece from the interview:
There's a lot of speculation about which Adobe and/or Macromedia products will be discontinued or integrated. How do Adobe and Macromedia plan to help Web developers adapt to the changes that will surely affect the products and services they rely on?
Chizen: Adobe and Macromedia have complementary tools for Web applications, but each has earned a leading position in its respective area. You can bet it's a franchise we're going to protect. We have resources from both companies on the integration team specifically dedicated to addressing developers' needs
Elop: More generally, both companies have a strong reputation for taking care of their customers, both as it relates to helping customers through product changes and through the inevitable generational changes that affect our industry. We helped CD-ROM developers move to the Web, and we're helping Web developers expand into the mobile space. Our customers should expect this same consideration as we move forward.

Adobe and Macromedia - A warm & fuzzy love-in
As long as neither tries to fix what's not broken then nothing but good can come from this merger. I use apps from both vendors and I would expect that they will work on closer integration on products from both that pretty much own the web document and development markets. Not sure I'll hold my breath hoping that is the reality of the merger.
