The latter. Their FAQ has already stated that Monaco is being completely phased out. The only old skin option they'll keep is Monobook (the really old skin) for certain sites (Uncyclopedia is one, but there are probably a few other exceptions).

You can probably voice objections on the community wiki (many already have), but it doesn't seem like it's doing much to discourage them. Best we could do is provide feedback about what works and what doesn't (I think the giant sidebar can be placed firmly in the "doesn't" category. I want it smaller!)
