Isn't Dinnerbone updating Bukkit to 1.8?

Notch and Jakob.

Tbh I can understand him. I am a developer too and if I were in his position, I would’ve likely done the same thing.

It Must Be Quite Terrifying Having A Whole Community Against Him, Im Proud of his DMCA

That was announced before all the legal drama kicked in.

Dinnerbone could make an attempt to issue a counter-DCMA, it would probably fail though.

ā€œI’m sure it’ll be better than bukkitā€

Show some appreciation… Bukkit served everyone VERY well.

No one said it we didn’t appreciate it.
But Sponge is already planning things that were impossible with Bukkit - therefore it will be better.

I don’t see it happening to be honest, with all that’s happening/happened the project is really on the brink at the moment. What Mojang decide to do with the project is yet to be decided but I don’t hold my breath.

That was indeed before the DCMA & the buyout, so the plans may have changed substantially and we won’t know for quite a bit. Either way, this doesn’t impact or stop Sponge development in any way ,I would imagine.

Either or? Don’t you mean && ?

Yes, I think so, he tweeted this:

I don’t think it’s likely. That tweet had been before the DMCA and ultimately caused the events where the DMCA happened. With the DMCA, it’s paved a way for any developer to take down the project if they wanted. Dinnerbone would need to write code replacing all code other non-Mojang contributors made if he wanted to avoid it being taken down. Besides, even if he got all of their permission, the project is now unsupported staff-wise and Dinnerbone doesn’t want to continue to update it himself.

Also, that @Dinnerbone on these forums is an impersonator, don’t bother tagging him :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah && would have been better than ||

I’ve never said, that bukkit is bad, but it also had another concept/structure than sponge. :slight_smile:

I totally, agree. Dinnerbone is an impersonator I see, I just copied his twitter xD

Dinnerbone is a gunna, gunna do this, gunna do that, but in the end, gunna do nothing.

Nothing has been committed, so I don’t see it being updated anytime soon. He’s a M$ bot now.

We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.
