Here's what happened, taking away people's motivations and leaving only the legal/software stuff.

There are 3 distinct projects:
1. The Minecraft server, in this case decompiled. It has a proprietary license, and Mojang have been tacitly allowing it to be distributed.
2. Bukkit, a GPL library that could theoretically handle plugins for many Minecraft like games, although it's really only useful for Minecraft.
3. Craftbukkit, which statically links both Bukkit and Minecraft.

Now, here's the relevant section of the GPL FAQ, where it states that you cannot distribute a GPL and a proprietary program statically linked together.

A contributer to Bukkit (not Craftbukkit) for certain reasons blew the GPL whistle, and had Craftbukkit taken down for GPL violations.

I got to just read this reply out of context. I already don't like the entire thread that led to this comment.

You already checked it!

No mod points, so I'm posing here that I completely agree. They're missing out on a huge potential audience.

But how do you trust the openssl library you're using to view gcc?!

The whole point is that the proxy removes Google's results entirely.

Does it cover holy wars? How about volcanoes?

My jaw almost hit the floor before I figured it out.

FTFY

Here's a link from an old website from 2006: http://humorix.org/10384

Like gold, it's backed up the idea that "there will be no more than X amount." I actually trust this more than the conventional "governments saying 'Please'" system we have now.

More importantly, couldn't someone go west one timezone (or even east actually,) wait until the time at their house is 6:01P and safely return?
