These are tricky questions. I don't think that Matt has made the decisions
yet, neither has he announced them publicly. The power to redirect is cer-
tainly there, but what is there for wordpress.com to gain? Will it become
a mere pointer or an alias? I suppose that quotas have not been thought
through yet.

Send an E-mail to m [at] mullenweg [dotcom] and ask for a clarification
(on the public pages too). Please don't say that /I/ suggested it if pos-
sible.
