For those who have not gotten the email. Here's a copy of the email. Sounds to me that they may be moving to a different network? (We look forward to working with you again in the near future.) Well All I can say is I don't look forward to working with them with less then a week notice.

They announced the closure of their program well over a month ago. The email alluded to here was a 'reminder'.

wierd, Didn't get any other notice from them

Wow REI.com joins commission Junction

Nice move!

I haven't gotten any emails about terminating their program or announcing their new program thru CJ. Are they asking affiliates to move or just droping 1 program and starting fresh on CJ?

They are dropping linkshare and moving to cj.com, that is what I'm hearing..
