This would not be the first open source project which was abandoned by the original development team, and then continued by a new team under the...
To put it bluntly, those who want to pretend that Bukkit no longer exists or do nothing but argue about semantics are staying here. Those who...
What version of Bukkit were you on when you originally created the world? I've seen discussion that some worlds created with older versions of...
There isn't an expiration, but whoever is responsible for uploading the allegedly infringing files can send a counter-claim. The problem in this...
So we agree that deciding who is and isn't an "official" Bukkit developer isn't up to you?
The last set of "official" bukkit/craftbukkit developers weren't the original bukkit/craftbukkit developers. One of the realities of open source...
Make sure you're using Spigot's version of Essentials. They've made some modifications to it in order for it to work with 1.8. I don't think...
Have you hired a lawyer who is advising you on the claims you are making, or are these based on your own interpretations of law? I question...
Assuming that removing NMS from the distribution of Bukkit satisfies the GPL, then how is it fishy that they're doing so? There are multiple ways...

GPL's definition of Tivoization: I have absolutely no idea how anyone could think Tivoization has anything at all to do with Spigot. My...
Has a lawyer told you this, or is this your own interpretation? FYI, based on the definition here:...
Distribution is the violation (copyright law is based on authorized distribution). Once spigot removed the downloads, they stopped violating the...
I've read either on the GPL's site or on FSF's site that distributing the source code separately and letting the end user combine them is...
You can't revoke a GPL license after it's already been granted to somebody. The termination clause he's talking about is a clause that only...
Using his source code isn't the issue. Combining his source code with non-GPL code and distributing the two as a bundle was the problem. Spigot...
True, but the new method does completely avoid the DMCA issue.
A lawsuit against craftbukkit was already dubious enough. Based on how Spigot is doing their release, it would have no chance against them.
The DMCA was against the distribution of craftbukkit.jar because it bundled both Bukkit and NMS together, which is theoretically not allowed....
