Most people developing Java voxel games/voxel game engines/anything to do with the Minecraft community are brand new developers who don't know what they are doing.... yet (not this guy though, in general Minecraft).

However I love game servers like this as it brings new talent into programming, and gets younger people interested. I remember a couple of years ago when private servers were more popular with games like World of Warcraft, Maplestory and a lot of other games that brought more people into programming.
