[8:03 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> paleo you're a cunt
[8:03 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> or atleast you come off that way
[8:03 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: PaleoCrafter> huh?
[8:04 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> "So the currently way is to say fuck it to the guidelines because you wont pull in my pr!"
[8:04 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: PaleoCrafter> sorry if it came across that way, it wasn't the way I meant that at all
[8:04 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: PaleoCrafter> It was a serious question about what modders should do right now
[8:05 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> If you give a shit you should work on a PR to cleanup the extraction
[8:05 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> Honestly its been on the todo for ages to move any mod fromt he mods folder that has the proper meta
[8:06 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> into the libraries folder and replace it with a line in the modlist.json
[8:06 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: PaleoCrafter> I actually thought about proposing that, just wasn't sure whether you had any concrete plans already where a PR of mine would just get in the way
[8:08 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: rallias> Wait, Forge is deprecating mods/ ?
[8:08 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: Javaschreiber> May I ask what benefits moving the mods into the lib folder would create?
[8:08 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> Less redundancy, Cleaner mod packs
[8:08 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> we can never deprecate /mods cuz its to simple to use.
[8:09 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: rallias> With all these changes... you're making my conference talk fairly difficult to do.
[8:09 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile>  like i give a shit?
[8:09 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: rallias> Fair enough.
[8:10 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: PaleoCrafter> are facilities for providing the maven metadata in place already or would something like that need to be added to some new file?
[8:10 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: Javaschreiber> So you could share mods accross packs without redownloading them? That would be nice...
[8:10 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: ghz|afk> hmmm so
[8:10 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: ghz|afk> a shared libraries/ folder
[8:10 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: ghz|afk> and a modlist.json that references them per-instance ?
[8:10 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: rallias> Javaschreiber, I mean... most competent pack management solutions do that already, no?
[8:10 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: ghz|afk> that sounds nice
[8:11 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: rallias> (the no-redownload part)
[8:11 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> Im assuming by a conference talk you mean you're trying to do some stupid 'how mod' or 'into to modding'. Which means you are purporting yourself to be some form of authority. I have no idea who you are, or what makes you think you know the best practices. This change has been wanted to be done for YEARS but couldnt because loaders and shit were stupid and people are lazy.
[8:11 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: PaleoCrafter> that's already possible, you know, ghz|afk :P
[8:11 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: ghz|afk> ah?
[8:11 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: ghz|afk> first time I hear of it
[8:11 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: ghz|afk> ;P
[8:11 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: LexMobile> Yes its already possible, No current mod installer system does it.
[8:11 PM] BOTMCBot - !commands: PaleoCrafter> shameless plug: https://github.com/Paleocrafter/CurseSync this already uses it :P
