Comment Re:Lacking developers. (Score 1) 189

Aapps are trivial to make for BB10 you can install android apps directly and a few modifications to the menu and it will fit in instead of feeling ported, native is "better" but integration with android runtime apps is quite seamless. Considering that the suits at blackberry seem chronically incapable of demonstrating competence despite the best efforts of engineering, I hope that they get bought whole by microsoft or samsung and not picket apart by scavengers when the time comes.

they have not integrated bukkit/craftbukkit into their products. his DMCA takedown is based on the GPL violation that has existed all along because craftbukkit could never have been legally GPL because it is built off essentially pirated decompiled mojang minecraft server code.

mojang has always looked the other way with server mod software working this way even before they bought rights to the bukkit name and hired some of the top devs (not including wolverness hence his butthurt)

craftbukkit (the server software) has always depended on illegally decompiled minecraft server code in order to function as a mod API for the minecraft server. so technically this makes craftbukkit not in compliance with it's own GPL licensing because it uses propritary code which cannot be released under the GPL

one of the top contributors, who knew all along that he was working on a project that was legally grey area, got butthurt and DMCA'd his own contributions.
