Removing obfuscation in Java Edition https://www.minecraft.net/en-u...

@slicedlime why not publish the sources then if they care so much about modders?

@slicedlime I have an important question: just because something isn't obfuscated doesn't mean the source code can be distributed (or partially distributed), right? Some mods must be closed-source because they use proprietary/original code. Modifications of NMS (net.minecraft.server) have

@slicedlime Internet Archive mirror while Azure is down: https://web.archive.org/web/20...

@slicedlime Announcement so big it took down Azure

@slicedlime oh wow

@slicedlime Will use of the non-obfuscated code be clearly legally permitted? IIRC, when the official de-obfuscation mappings released in 2019, many of the community continued using their own mappings as it was legally gray whether you could actually use the official ones or not.

@slicedlime This is huge! Thank you guys for this! But does this mean the un-obfuscated versions will be their own “b” snapshots?

@slicedlime Very cool. But I'm just curious, why did they released the mappings for the obfuscation in 2019 rather than just unobfuscate it at that point?

@slicedlime Please publish the sources for modders 🙏🙏

@slicedlime Why can’t I like this post twice?
