Hello everyone,

This is just a quick update on the current progress of Sponge.

As you may have noticed, the work on Sponge has slowed considerably over the past few weeks. Whilst we did aim to get the project out as soon as possible, we have hit a few partially expected delays.

Firstly, as Sponge is built on forge, a build of forge for 1.8 is required to even start working on an implementation (The runnable server) of the Sponge project. We are working closely with the Forge Team (LexManos), to help however we can in order to ensure that Sponge is out as soon as possible, and as capable as possible.

Secondly, we are waiting on the completion of an Entity Component System, this is aimed as part of the API that will allow incredible flexibility when creating plugins that add new functionality to mobs, and potentially other objects such as blocks. As this is a rather large portion of Sponge, it has caused a few delays due to many parts requiring it to be completed first. @Grum from Mojang, and the late Bukkit Project, has been kind enough to help us out with it.

Although we have not announced a release date, nor do we plan to at this current point in time, we thank you all for your patience with these delays.
