In addition to killing the branding, they're removing all existing slicehost interfaces (control panel, api, etc), and migrating all users to rackspace boxes.

That's all of the slicehost product that's left for now. If that's not killing the product, I'm not sure what is.

Bummer. I love the Slicehost interface... so simple! I hope they retain all the linux tutorials on Slicehost, that's what made me join anywhere. The content in those is pure gold.

In addition to using those guides on my slice, I used them to help setup my friends under-desk server, my linode, and several EC2 instances. I love those guides.

It depends on how you look at it - at one point Slicehost was forked to become Rackspace Servers.
