Updating Issues-- Legals Have Possibly Thrown Bukkit Into a Bucket

I'm trying as hard as I can to get the server updated to version 1.8-- but Bukkit is in some trouble right now.  1.8 will still be coming out, according to Dinnerbone.. but getting everything sorted out will take some time. It's super confusing, but here's what I got:

"Unfortunately, all good things come to an end and the Bukkit project has run its course, leaving me to make one final - incredibly difficult - decision to shut down the project I’ve poured 3 and a half years of my life into which means so much to me. "
-EvilSeph

"Warren over at bukkit seems to have forgotten that the project was bought by Mojang over two years ago, and isn't his to discontinue."

 "One of the ex-developer[s], Wesley Wolfe, is attempting to bring bukkit, mojang and spigot down, by taking them to court, and appealing for a DMCA"
