Some of you may have noticed this post by one of our members, Wind:

Dear user..windows live groups migrate..bla bla.. Fake ?

We've done some further investigating and corresponding with MSN asking specifically whether or not the letter in Message 12 with the ID# SRX10815898101D is true. This is what we received in response:

RE: SRX1081670277ID - MSN Groups:Manage Group

Hello ****,

Thank you for writing to MSN Groups Technical Support. My name is Geri and I understand that you are inquiring about Group migration to Multiply.com. I will try to address your questions to the best of my ability. I realize how important MSN Groups is to you and I appreciate that you've written to us regarding your concerns.

Change is coming

As you may have noticed we've made considerable investments across MSN and Windows Live to enhance your product experience while aligning our online services brands. As we make new product investments, our intention is to offer new products and capabilities while keeping you connected to your online network.

Can you give me specifics?

For now, unfortunately, I cannot give specifics about the new products and updates we have in the works. We will however be communicating updates in the near future so definitely be on the look-out for those.

Any important announcements from Microsoft about MSN Groups will be posted at the MSN Groups homepage (http://groups.msn.com). In the near future, we hope to provide you with more information and establish communication channels through which you can provide feedback.

We appreciate your continued support as we strive to provide you with the highest quality service available. Thank you for using MSN Groups.

Sincerely,

Geri

What we *do* know is that change is coming. Windows Live Groups are being launched with Wave 3 under the Windows Live umbrella with a yet unconfirmed launch date of mid-November. Whether or not existing groups are being migrated to another site in the same manner that adult groups were moved remains to be seen (not confirmed as of yet, but watch this thread).

Important Announcement The MSN Groups service will close in February 2009. You can move your group to Multiply, MSN’s partner for online groups. Learn More
