RE: End of WLM? Or just a renaming of the brand?
I would not say the end, but there will be some changes. I was at the presentation of Win 8 last year in Anaheim and I talked with the PM in charge of Live.
There is an effort to rewrite some apps (obviously since you can see a Metro Style application in preview) but old win32 apps will still work.
I was able to run WLM 2011 with Plus! on Win8 without any issues.
However, running Plus! on WinRT (the Metro Style part) is a different story and we are working on that.
