This merger includes a significant amount new cash being invested. Also, Stratasys will be taking backseat and becoming a minority investor. Ultimaker has continued to invest in Cura and make it available for many competing printers over the years. They understand the value of giving something back to a community. Thingiverse is one of the biggest and most important 3D printing communities out there. I know that a lot of people in Ultimaker (and I suspect MakerBot too) are keen to see Thingiverse be restored and improved.
