Well with Permissions3 now dead and unsupported everyone has moved to SuperPerms. These hooks shouldnt change very often so making the switch would be worthwhile if you want the plugin to not be lost at 1.8.1 (bukkit build 1185).

Im running Localshops 4.0.0dev-b83 but all builds utilize Permissions3. LS3 uses Perms 2.7 or Permissions 3 but either way no version runs SuperPerms. I get NPEs when trying to use LS as well as a failed startup for LS on server boot.

superperm support is in latest vault.
