Here are, mirrored, the IRC logs for Grum and Arcanis's conversation, which covers various topics: from the Technic launcher's usage of login tokens, through Mojang's future plans, to their opinions on modding.

I'm not commenting because I don't really want to anymore. Grum made me sad. And worried. Deeply worried. I am not sure if you should expect further updates for Computronics.
EDIT: Grum has essentially showed he, as a Mojang developer, does not want me to touch his game in any way he doesn't like. So, as I always do, I shall comply with his wishes. (Besides, I know many people who will be happy to see me gone.)
EDIT 2 (05/05/2014): Looking back and talking to Grum more, it must be said that the logs are written in a way that doesn't fully show the reasons behind Mojang's decisions. I still stand by all the things I mentioned in this post, though.
