Did they say what, exactly, they had "acquired"? Obviously they could continue distributing and developing the GPL/LGPL source, and depending on whether the name is trademarked they could keep calling it Bukkit.
Does Mojang own the issue tracker, the website, etc.? In that case, sure, they can keep those going, although without any developers I don't see the point.
- makomk 12y agoThat is a very good question which I don't think they've ever really answered. The domain seems to be registered to Curse, who formerly owned Bukkit and presumably still provide hosting for it. They certainly don't own the copright on most of the code, and probably have no more right to use much of it than anyone else. Stuff like trademarks and the Github project? Who knows. Plus Mojang keep contradicting themselves about the relationship between Bukkit and them.
