The Word of Notch announces that Markus 'Notch' Persson is stepping down as lead developer on Minecraft: As of yesterday, Jens Bergensten is the new lead developer on Minecraft. He will have the final say in all design decisions, so he will kinda sorta become my boss, I guess. I’ve promised him to not pull rank. ;)
We’ve been working together on Minecraft for a year now, and I’m amazed at how much in synch we two are when it comes to how to design the game. And when we don’t agree, we discuss it and something much better comes out at a result. He’s truly a great person to work with, and I feel very confident handing over the leadership of Minecraft to him.
If you want to contact Jens, he’s on twitter as @jeb_, or you can email him at jeb@mojang.com
Personally, I will now rest for a while, then get back to work refreshed and eager. I’ll be helping out with Minecraft, of course, but also starting work on some new project.

thanks for all the money, see ya
Thats a bit uncalled for.
except it isnt
I believe it is. You pre-ordered a product which was then finished and delivered. His end of the contract is completed, what more do you feel you deserve?
By replying to him, you're giving him the attention he so deeply craves.
Perhaps, but I agree with 'sc', or more accurately, what I perceive his very-much-lacking detail comment meant.
I also don't think there is anything wrong with being a one-shot-wonder and cashing out. In many ways, and not being into 'celebrityism', I think it's better...
