Anybody know why Ubuntu seems to be the only one using Compiz now, and why all the other distros have dropped it, and what will they use instead?

Ubuntu 12.04 will ship with Compiz in April. That will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. Compiz is a core component of Unity, in fact Unity is implemented as a Compiz plugin.

Also note Canonical employs Sam Spilsbury who works on Compiz.

Cheers,
Al.
