I think this is a good idea, he's dedicated to Minecraft's development and it seems the project has grown too large for Notch, considering he wants to work on other things.
I'm not going to lie, for a long time now I figured Jeb was in charge of the minecraft development anyways, with notch having less and less. Especially after 1.9 started releasing the "pre-releases" each week. Not to crap on Notch or anything - he started a new genre of gaming - but I've liked Jeb more since he started having a hand in minecraft's development. I know he will take the project in a great direction.
jeb only has the final say notch will still be in minecraft but notch said he wants the game to be more mod friendly and jeb is a mod using person and notch trusts jeb minecraft has came a long way from a one person bizz to around 10 peeps i think and A LOT of impressing things for a 8 bit game! jeb also said the API will be changed cant wait to see what that will look like!
Not very unexpected, considering Jeb had been the main person working on Minecraft for a while and that Notch had other projects he was working on. I expect Notch will still work on Minecraft in one way or another eventually.

P.S someone needs to get working on the temple of Jeb
Obvious this was happening. I think Notch is sick of Minecraft really. He's got money in the bank and that's all he has ever wanted. He will just shove Minecraft into Jebs lap and be done with it. He better hire some more developers otherwise he is going to have a community at his throat 24/7.
Good luck Jeb and I have mixed feelings. You will either do great or the community will just burden you with ********. Still, congratulations. To the future!

Hmm. I don't know what to think. I'm going to miss Notch. Wow. A million thoughts just went through my head. How's this going to effect minecraft? Will Notch still be doing work at Mojang? Is Minecraft just going to fall apart? I'm sure Jeb is a good programmer, and going to do well with the company, but Notch... WHY... Now Jeb needs to get a hat. Jeb's going to have to interview the Yogscast. Jeb's going to get blamed for glitches in minecraft. Now we're going to have to build the temple of Jeb. Woah! I wonder if this is going to change Israphel... Now Notch isn't like the 'god' of minecraft... Hmmm. This could really change minecraft.
I knew it would happen... Notch is a lazy ******* and the mod API? lol originally it was supposed to come out in late 2010! it will never happen
ever
mark my words.
Congrats Jeb - I believe in you!
Lol no.

Also, where the **** did he say that he would remove dragons, or not include them at all? I never saw that.
