The first and third sentence aren't strictly true, see discussion here:

https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/177859/can-i-sell-forked-gpl-code/177860

In short, the GPL doesn't prohibit selling of source. It's just that no one 
might bother if they also get it for free.

Hi,
I would like to share info about availability of a MC fork –
at neomcedit DOT software. There are many unique features added,
you might want to check it out.

As for the possible questions:

- Why aren't you sending patches to upstream?

I was, for ca.: 4 months, however all my feature-patches have been rejected.

- Why are you sending the info here?

Because there are many people on the list interested with anything
that is connected with MC, who may get inspired to work on upstream
sources or which may get neomcedit.

Ok, I'll make a binary and attach  the source code. Thanks for pointing
this out.

NeoMCEdit fork with many new extensions

2021-06-15 Thread Sebastian Gniazdowski via mc
Hi,
I would like to share info about availability of a MC fork –
at neomcedit DOT software. There are many unique features added,
you might want to check it out.

As for the possible questions:

- Why aren't you sending patches to upstream?

I was, for ca.: 4 months, however all my feature-patches have been rejected.

- Why are you sending the info here?

Because there are many people on the list interested with anything
that is connected with MC, who may get inspired to work on upstream
