Is this a joke?

If not what does it actually mean that WP has been bought by Zwinky?

That donations ( of any kind ) are no longer appropriate because the money will all be going to Zwinky?

Or that donations are no longer appropriate because they will go to someone, ( you ), who no longer has any WP running costs to pay for?

As someone who has donated $100 to your WP merchant a/c over this last year I would like to know what the situation is exactly, so that I know whether to donate again.

And a clarification would also be very welcome so that I know whether I should immediately stop explaining to people that they can donate small and/or one-off amounts to you, to help WP, ( by using their Pay Pal a/c Send Money function ). Because if WP is now owned by Zwinky any donations will simply disappear into their pockets or your own and have no impact on WP at all.

Zwinky wouldn't buy WP, it is of no value to them.

Relief--I would not find it funny to be at the mercy of an animated drawing. :P
