Where can I find reliable information about Microsoft plans to support COM + in future versions of Windows?

When looking at a large web application with many competing priorities, one of the things I have to deal with is the large number of COM + components. At some point, these things should be recycled in some other technologies (WCF, .NET, whatever). Part of how I prioritize these efforts will be "longer than Microsoft ceasing to support it?"

I have damn time discovering solid official information from Microsoft that their current plans are for supporting COM + in future versions of Windows.

Any guidance would be very appropriate.

Unfortunately, I also do not have this information :(.

Personally, I do not think that Microsoft is going to stop supporting COM / COM + in the near future (just take a look at the # o components, each version of Windows represents / depends on). To be sincere, I do not believe that they can afford to stop supporting COM +, ever.

IMHO, the more important question is how easy / expansive it is to find qualified developers to support the code base.

Hope this helps
