What of FrontPage after Vista?

I ran a Vista preparedness check on my system and one of the results said
the FrontPage Server Extensions would not be supported. What are users of
FrontPage supposed to replace the Server Extension functions with?
 
MS stopped supporting FPSE a few months ago.
Expression Web, which does not need extensions (but will work with them) is
replacing FP.
FP will be supported for several more years, but apparently not the
extensions.

Thanks David for the links but that does not answer my question and that
is - once migration to vista is done what will we use to replace the fp
functions handled by the server extensions?

The only replacement would be SharePoint and .Net

So you are saying that users of Vista and FrontPage will have to recreate
the functions that the Server Extensions perform themselves?
 
Since Vista doesn't support extensions, that would be the case.
