Dragon Roots Magazine, which if you haven't heard of yet you can check out at www.dragonroots.net, is a bit torn on this subject.
When I started writing this magazine, I did so because WOTC took away the printed versions of Dragon and Dungeon. I secluded myself from the net while getting it started and I found out about 4e about 24 hours before the big announcement. So, for me, 4e was a hit right where it hurt.
I was left trying to figure out if I wanted 3.5 content or 4e content. I am still on the fence, but it appears most people want 4e content so Dragon Roots will follow suit and produce 4e content.
That said, I know that a lot of people are going to resist change and I am normally one of those people. So Dragon Roots will also produce 3.5 material as well. I personally have a lot of articles that I wrote for Dragon, but never submitted, that contain 3.5 material. They will make their way into those pages in the future.
To make a long story short, if we get some 3.5 articles, we will print them, just like we will print 4e material. It will start to be mostly 4e material, but I could see a 3.5 section or even one or two issues dedicated to 3.5.
The good thing about writing a magazine is that the material printed can usually be converted easily and also the ideas generally span more than the current version. A lot of the things people write, like campaign building articles, is good solid advice that any DM or PC can make use of regardless of what version they play.

And Paradigm/Living Arcanis is NOT going 4e but NOT sticking with 3.5 either. New game system time.
