Congratulations to Ryan, Matt, Donncha and Andy on the launch of Automattic. Having had the pleasure of test driving wordpress.com here for the last couple of months I look forward to recommending and rolling out the MU version of 2.0 to clients in 2006. Hat tip to SiliconBeat for the story by way of memeorandum.
