Patch 8.1 and Cross-Faction Roleplay

CrossRP was an addon that revolutionized roleplay in WoW, and one of the biggest community events, the Tournament of Ages, made use of it and because of its use the event, and by extension WoW, made it onto Forbes. 8.1 has changed the API in such a way that the addon is broken, and the author cannot fix it. Can you give us an explanation as to what happened? Was it just a slip-up in the code that can and will be fixed? Or was it intentional? Do you intend to give us some sort of alternative to streamlined cross-faction communication?
