I don't think it's been discussed here (actually, I remembered reading
about it, but I don't think I've seen any discussion about it on any
of the lists I monitor).

So I Googled [news: "Microsoft FrontPage" discontinued] and got the
following hits:

I then searched the Microsoft site and found the original article:

So, yes, FrontPage is being discontinued. It's being replaced by new
Office applications.
