At least that's how I read their website. Their company name and information is all over the typepad pages as well. I'm also looking at their wikipedia page.

They don't do any hosting for other installs though which I think is the issue that Matt is saying. Typepad is SixApart's wp.com I would think.

Automattic does do phone and tech support. See here for details.

i believe (having not used the insanely expensive service) that typepad is to movable type what wordpress MU is to wordpress.

We do the same, and have no plans to become a web host at any time in the future.

That's what I meant to say. WordPress should offer hosting of WordPress 2.0.5 and charge money for the service.

Why not offer premium hosting that costs money? And for an extra charge offer phone support and consulting? If you want to use the software that you download from WordPress.org you must currently go to a third party for web hosting.

Sorry, I shouldn't have listed Support as a tag.

Sending a Feedback might be an easier way to reach the latter.

Stop me if you've heard this one before... Why not host the software that's available for download at WordPress.org? And offer phone support and consults for extra bucks.
