=============================
I know I'm not allowed to say too much about the Office 2007 beta, but I can
tell you that so far, FrontPage is definitely included in the downloads I
got when I got the beta, so as far as I'm concerned, it still appears to be
part of Office.

Re being "part of Office"

I was again, speculating. Here is the rationale for my speculation.
  
  
1. See
http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/suites.mspx

It appears that the Expression products are not included in any of the Office
bundles.
  
  
2. See
http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/pricing.mspx

The Expression products do not appear in any of the Office pricing
  
  
3. See these pages ...
http://www.microsoft.com/products/expression/en/graphic_designer/default.mspx
http://www.microsoft.com/products/expression/en/interactive_designer/default.m
spx 
http://www.microsoft.com/products/expression/en/web_designer/default.mspx

There is no Office logo, and no reference to Office ... it is as though
"Expression" is the new "bundle" instead of "Office".
  
  
4. See 
http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2006/feb06/02-15OfficeMoreOptionsPR.m
spx

It indicates that Microsoft Office Sharepoint Designer will be in the Office
family. It does not mention the parallel product, Expression Web Designer
  
  
But I'm speculating.
