Indeed. It's worth pointing out, too, that Potlatch 1 is inevitably  
'lighter' than Potlatch 2 (so works better on older computers), and  
also that as yet, no open source SWF player is able to successfully  
play ActionScript 3 programs such as Potlatch 2.

So I certainly wouldn't anticipate P1 disappearing completely - and  
that's even before considering the features that P1 has but P2 doesn't  
yet.
