Default Alternatives to Office Online

You are correct - only the ability to view and manage the calendars in a
browser is ending. AFAIK, this will happen closer to the release of office
2010.

"Publishing calendars online and subscribing to them do not change. You can
still publish and subscribe to calendars through Microsoft Office Outlook
2007. You can subscribe to published calendars if you use a program using
the WebCal protocol, such as Outlook, Windows Live Calendar, Google
Calendar, or Apple iCal. Calendar updates are sent through Outlook as
before, and subscribers download updates just as they do today.

The discontinuation of the online tools means you can no longer preview,
edit or remove published calendars by using your Web browser. To preview a
published calendar with a Web browser, you must subscribe to the calendar
using a service like Windows Live Calendar. To change or delete a calendar,
you must use Outlook. "

Thank you... Where/what did you read about Microsoft shutting down
published calendars?

The following link describes that the preview feature will be
disabled... but not publishing.
