Personnel

gollark: Do you have some way to automatically download it for everyone? I'd rather not go through it by hand.
gollark: It would be running on spare capacity on my webserver, but I've used it for that before and it was okay with about 50 mods and a reasonably sized base.
gollark: That's basically creative mode.
gollark: There is also the question of what to have in the modpack.
gollark: I mean, if people actually want a server, I can host it on my stuff.
