>So much of the mod was on top of this de-obfuscated version of the server that any distribution would require distributing large amounts of de-obfuscated code - there was no other source for this.

How much of the updating and deployment tasks could be done by a script on the user's computer/server? Decompile with MCP and pull in all the changes as patches, like the Craftbukkit github was when I saw it?
