Congratulations! Really cool of them and you. Is there a statement from Minecraft how much they'll be developing this?


Thank you! But I don't know a thing about it - I only found out it existed because an internet citizen looked at the source and let me know.


It's a little bizarre that they didn't get in touch with you at all.


It would have been friendly, but FWIW they seem to have forked my project in mid 2017, so I'm guessing it's an experiment and got shelved and later revived.

So it's easy to imagine a scenario where the people who ultimately released it last week weren't really aware of how much it uses external libraries - mine, and also a 3D engine called Babylon.js (who also weren't contacted).


Modus operandi of predatory organisations.


Or, completely in keeping with the open source license he made it under?

Amazing - you are given the power to choose your own license and choose how you want people to view your source code, yet people are STILL unhappy and surprised when you comply in the exact way you wanted them to.
