After 8BIT recently closed shop, many people expressed concern over the destiny the company’s core product, Standard Theme. Was it going to be retired…discontinued? No one seemed to know.
On 8BIT’s blog—which has been notably silent as of late—an announcement was just made: Standard Theme has been acquired by WooThemes. It lives on!
8BIT’s been working on a “transition” strategy behind the scenes, and as they explain in their post, WooThemes will be providing support for Standard Theme and its customers moving forward.
Existing customers will receive more information from 8BIT soon, and new customers can go straight WooThemes in the near future for more information.
I’m sure some folks are relieved. What’s your take on the acquisition?
