It means that the exam will not be available and you cannot take it. It
won't be "replaced" in that there will no longer be any exams pertaining to
Visual Studio 6. Also, you will no longer be able to get a MCSD
certificaiton based on Visual Studio 6 exams. If you take the exam (or all
the exams for the VS6 MCSD) before June 30 then you will not "lose" your
certification, but will continue to be certified indefinitely.
I don't consider the .NET exams to be "replacements" for the VS6 exams -
VS.NET is pretty much a whole different animal.
