One can keep using any version downloaded before that date, but I would not 
be surprised to see a bugfix sometime after.

There is also this:
"
2.What can I do with the Express Editions?
...
 Evaluate the .NET Framework for Windows and Web development.
"
and this

"
13.Can I develop applications using the Visual Studio Express Editions to 
target the .NET Framework 1.1?
No, each release of Visual Studio is tied to a specific version of the .NET 
Framework. The Express Editions can only be used to create applications 
that run on the .NET Framework 2.0.
"
'Free' is not always free.  This appears to be a .NET 2 promotion.

Perhaps the Firefox people are using the professional version, without such 
a limitation?
