Pretty cool, they seem to have made an XML interface for parsing minecraft commands, allowing various programming languages to be used to compose "missions" which can then be outputted as XML and read by the mod to be run in the game. I think this is crucial because (IMO) Java is not a good language for beginners because it is such a "large" language.

You write your agent in Python (or a few other languages), and it can be as simple as this: https://github.com/Microsoft/malmo/blob/master/Malmo/samples/Python_examples/run_mission.py https://github.com/Microsoft/malmo/blob/master/Malmo/samples... We talk to the Minecraft Mod over TCP.
