This is what Facebook has to say about the FBML tab changes
“On June 6th, FBML apps will no longer work on Platform.” – Facebook Developer Blog
With countless millions of FBML monthly users today, when Facebook removes all FBML tabs, this removal will have a large and far reaching impact on Fan Page admins that may not be aware of the news.
In short, any fan page tab that was created with the Static FBML application will no longer work. In Facebook’s early days, FBML was one of the only options Fan Page admins had to customize their tabs.
