[tech] [wheel] Forge+Sponge Minecraft Server

[Callan Gray]

Overspecced is what I like to hear :D

With that in mind there's a few extra things I might try to sort out 
before I put out a new client pack.

All good with AE2, HWYLA, NEI. I've recently hacked in 
architecturecraft, better foliage and journeymap without
issue. Currently testing some of potentially client only and server only 
mods.

I should mention I've currently built this pack mainly for OpenComputers 
and the tech/power mods of IC2,
GregtechCE and NuclearCraft. CoFH and Thermal Expansion I know is an 
alternative power system to this however
I've left it out since it is an easier ecosystem whereas IC2 and 
Gregtech are more engineering oriented. Still not perfectly
though since there is only a concept of low voltage and high voltage and 
no AC/DC :(

Ender IO needs some compatibility tweaking to work nicely with the other 
mods atm, it appears the issues are related to duplicate recipes.

Some other considerations to make are:
* factions?
* player progression ideas?
* support chat with multiple discord servers?
* admins?
* spawn building?
* additional vanilla server?
* extra worldgen mods?

If you'd like to check it out I have a stable version up here:

the description in a while)
