Paizo ends license for AoN to host the PRD
They will switch to use only the Community Use Policy, which lets them use the world lore, names, etc. But the artwork will be going away, and the PF1 archived PRD will go away. Not sure what this means in the long-term for AoN.

No, because the Forge doesn't have a special license like AoN did.
Everything in the Forge should already be compliant with the Paizo CUG and ORC.
Paizo has release some images under the CUG/ORC and those, plus any the Forge author otherwise has rights to are the only images that should be included.
Paizo modules on the FG Store are done under a sperate license with Paizo and SmiteWorks, and they are not affected either.
