Mojang is going to change the the (Player) name system to a UUID based system in MC update 1.8. All non-UUID server will be handeld as "offline" server.
UUID stands for "Universally Unique Identifier" (Wikipedia).
Also, every data/permission, that are based on "nicknames" will be unusable.
As an example:
My MC name: "LO1ZB"
My UUID: "1295d99051854fada72c6031433a755b"
I used this tool to get my UUID:

Well, at least they'll finally push us into implementing HTTPS.

Sounds like a great change to me

UUIDs are in full force with 1.7.6 and have borked mcserver with a new protocol version.

:O

Damn

Selectively merge the egg and basil (yggdrasil) changes from Howaner?

Nay, those changes were too radical - he got completely rid of the old auth system; we need it kept. And we want a generic SSL client filter, not a hardcoded blocking one.
