Stephen My understanding is that the consumer product know as Live Mesh will not be retired. However, the developer/application platform Live Framework has been withdrawn in order to be surfaced again at a later date, presumably with closer integration into the whole Windows Azure platform.
Note that .NET Services is not related in functionality to Live Framework, although we may see that some of the services that were part of Live FX surface in components of .NET Services. Specifically I'm guessing that the authentication mechanism will probably be aligned with the Access control service that is part of .NET Services.

Someone at Teched mentioned to me that as Mesh (aka livemesh / www.mesh.com<http://www.mesh.com>) is part of services that are being retired. I think they are being replaced with the Microsoft .Net Services (so possibly on topic for this list?). I've looked about and can't find any info to confirm or deny this. I use Mesh a fair bit and was wondering if anyone can point me to some concrete info, or knows first hand? Will there be a replacement service or will Mesh be moved to the new services? seems odd that they would drop something given the amount of hype when it was first put out in beta. thx, Stephen
