Sad? I thought both were rather useless, and workspaces was certainly annoying.
What I'd like to see is some improvements to the RSS feed. The "authors" field is blank, there's no way to distinguish between updates and new articles, nor articles vs. blog posts.
I'll be mentioning that in the suggestions forum at some point.

I suppose it is only sad if you used it and liked it, or if you were one of the devs that spent many hours developing it.

Exactly, and I have great empathy for both users and those devs. It sucks when that happens. I do wonder why it didn't take off (though certainly I'm a contributor to the problem, as all of my recent articles have the source code hosted on GitHub.)

I'm still relatively new to github and was looking to potentially use workspaces for my private repositories and was actually looking at how you handle multiple repositories, but got distracted by other stuff so never followed through on actually starting to use workspaces. Glad I didn't now!

Rather than ask "What's next?", ask yourself this:
Why do I use CodeProject?
How would I like to use CodeProject?
What do I not use on CodeProject?
My answers:
I use CodeProject to find solutions to issues I have; I frequently find what I am looking for in arcticles. The forums I frequent are VB and Database; where I can, I will assist.
I would like to see a reputation system that is based on articles and coding forums only - I shouldn't be increasing my reputation by posting inane whatever in the Lounge or any other non-coding forum.
I have tried to use QA, but gave up because of the incessant 'Help plz', and other such vitriol.

I agree with those and will add;
A better tablet interface. Maybe I'm not doing something I should be doing but when I first come to CP on my tablet everything is desktop size and I have to scroll all the way to the bottom to change to ?full site? I think is the button label.

I think that the site needs to be more interactive and responsive to the needs of the primary stakeholders while delivering a forward-looking design. Is it in The Cloud yet? And why does it not look right on my 10-year-old phone? Can you make it work like Facebook? Have you upgraded to HTML 5 yet? Don't you need that for The Cloud? My friend's nephew said he could do this in a day with WordPress, he's only 13, why are you saying it will take months? This is all digital, right? Is it in high-def?
[I just thought I'd throw out the same kind of nonsense I've gotten in the past.]

I am the one tasked with upgrading my bushwalking club's website. I don't have much experience with websites but I'm a "computer guy" so it was a lay down misere. After a bit of research decided to use Joomla cms which beguiled me with "get a website running in one hour" promises. It's a week later and I'm getting there and learning a great deal about how the other half lives. I've made tons of mistakes and still don't understand lots. Documentation and structure leave a lot to be desired. Third party add-ons while laudable in their intentions often add to the problems. Maybe I've been too ambitious.
My conclusion is that I should have started with a minimal installation and got that working then prettied it up.
Tomorrow night I will demo to the committee. That is something to look forward to.

And the apps that promise this stuff do indeed do that.
It's a rap site (with a capital 'C'), but it's up and running. It'll then take you all year to get it working right, but that's not their problem: you've invested time in getting that far, so you'll probably continue.
It's like all the "Learn ABC in XYZ days!!!" books out there: useless piles of steaming canine excrement for anything outside the narrow scope of the document. But they sell to the lazy and stupid...who then think they are master coders when they close the book.

What started as a knocking sound coming from the top end of the wifes car engine has resulted in me buying her a new car! And I'm not even at home at the moment... The deposit was paid today over the phone, they are shipping it up from London, should be here next week, just in time for me to get home and sign the paperwork.  pre-registered pre-spec'd model, saves waiting for 3 months and get some discount.
Needless to say she is running around in my car at the moment, guaranteed to be no fuel in it when I get home as well.
The rewards better be worth it for the considerable future! 
The dealer also then started to tease me when I said I need to come and see him anyway to start planning for my change in a years time. (need to catch the correct order slots etc.) He said "oh we have a cracking car in at the moment that is right up your street", had a hunch what it might have been and sure as Sh!t I am convinced he must be able to read my mind when he told me. Must resit.
