Can you please elaborate about the version parsing bug in FB?

Who is this question targeted towards?  Adobe FlashBuilder team or Apache
Flex team?

Would FlashBuilder team be willing to push out a patch just to support
Apache Flex 4.10?  Or is it possible to solve the problem by calling our
release 5.0.0 (just asking)

And do we know if the other IDEs dont have this same problem?  Anyone tried
it out on FDT, IntelliJ, FlashDevelop, etc.?

Thanks,
Om
