Many British Midland (BD) flights carry codeshare numbers from people like
United, Lufthansa and other Star carriers. Anyone know how much notice
they have to give before they can stop providing that service to their
Star partners now that British Airways (BA), which is a oneWorld carrier,
has entered into an agreement to buy BD?

The likelihood is that British Midland will cease to exist.
