The parent company of Wordpress, Automattic announced this week that it received $29 million in funding from 4 investors, who will take a minority stake in the company.

According to Automattic’s founder, Matthew Mullenweg, “Automattic and myself personally will continue to contribute to open source in every way possible. It’s something I feel very strongly about and it’s core to the DNA of our company.”
