Am I the only one with great concerns and find this rather strange?The plan is to build a fresh server API, and then extend it to support client-side modding (in one way or another). We will try to make it easy for bukkit users to convert if they wish to do so, but backwards compatibility is not guaranteed. We will, however, help bukkit to be compatible with 1.2, to avoid having a long gap while you wait for the official Minecraft server to catch up.
- What happens to Bukkit? From the messages I see it will mean Bukkit is dead after 1.2.
- "Help make Bukkit compatible with 1.2"? Another message that says Bukkit is dead.
- What are our options when 1.3 comes out? Do we have to use the official MC server software? Will it be in the same shape as Bukkit is right now? Or are we going through the Alpha, Beta, Release stage again?!
- How much will change with the new api? How many plugin developers will update to the new server api? Will it work the "same" as Bukkit or do developers need to learn a whole new api again!?
- I've probably have more concerns but won't bother you all with them...
But as always with Bukkit the communication is so bad! So many questions and no answers... Will go and look through the interwebs to check if any of my concerns are just.
