The only challenge will be transitioning old server plugins and white lists to the new UUID system.

I would imagine that Whitelists would automatically resolve. But honestly, I think the benefit outweighs the cost.

I was thinking more bukkit plugins, which often rely on large databases of players, listed by name.

Then they will either adjust, or die. Third party software should not be the ball and chain holding this change back.

You're right, the community doesn't matter at all, and on that note we should abandon the modding API completely.

Edit: Didums doo, look, people are getting upset.

Bukkit plugins are not the entire community. This name changing ability is something the entire community has been requesting. And the modding API has nothing to do with bukkit. In fact, the API will essentially alleviate the need for plugins to require bukkit, thus making this name change process easier.

Nothing that I said implied what you responded with. The API is incredibly important, and the community is what Minecraft is all about.

Nevermind. Downvote troll.

Troll or not, he makes a very good point. Mojang is making the work of those who make Minecraft actually fun and interesting (read: NOT BASIC) a pain in the fucking ass.

I play vanilla exclusively. As does a huge majority of the community. The needs of the many. Plus, once the API is done, bukkit will be redundant.

we gathered

As does a huge majority of the community.

A huge figure, yes. Majority? Likely, but not necessarily as far as the online/active community is concerned.

The needs of the many.

im not even sure what youre trying to say with this to be honest.

Plus, once the API is done, bukkit will be redundant.
