That sounds dumb. Why? because they've built up an ecosystem around an API that they're about to throw by the wayside (unless they integrate it into MCJE), and I very much doubt that the new system will be as powerful (will it be able to handle mod conflicts? What about the very powerful APIs that Forge has built over the years, will you replace them? I'd like to see you try to rebuild Fluid API, FMP, OreDict, FluidDict, and the rest. And if you don't, than the best of modding probably won't be able to be rewritten for your new system). Hopefully, Searge is involved, in which case it's more likely we'll get something decent. Also hopefully, Java MC will just include Forge into MC, or at least support it officially, or something. I don't want all my favorite mods to die.
