Microsoft Agent Framework. So what's next?

[christianarg]

Hi,
Since the Semantic Kernel Blog had no post for over a month, I started to feel a disturbance in the force. So I did a quick google search and found Microsoft Agent Framework https://devblogs.microsoft.com/foundry/introducing-microsoft-agent-framework-the-open-source-engine-for-agentic-ai-apps/

I remembered some post few months back about https://devblogs.microsoft.com/semantic-kernel/semantic-kernel-and-autogen-part-2/ that both frameworks were converging and it "seemed" that they were going to converge into SK...

But now "surprise", new framework to replace this idea with the "best of both".
So what's next?
Article says SK will be supported but new investment will go to MAF (I just invented the acronym)
So a assume the recommendation is to start planning migration to MAF? (I've even found a migration article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/agent-framework/migration-guide/from-semantic-kernel/?pivots=programming-language-csharp)

Thanks
