March 31 Twitter (Notch) - Update today?! We're focusing on doing an update today, but stats and achievements are getting pushed back to the next update because they don't work.
Twitter (jeb_) - Compass stays the same We decided that the compass in Minecraft always should point to the same position, so it will not change when you move your respawn point
March 23 Twitter (jeb_) - Spawnpoint explained "To address a misconception: You set the respawn point when you *wake up* (and being woken up by a skeleton doesn't count)"
March 22 Reddit - Wolves and creepers "Currently they wont attack creepers because it leads to the death of whole kennels =("
[*:tnkgwqpa]Jeb has been working on wolves
[*:tnkgwqpa]Achievements, will be challenges, not chores
[*:tnkgwqpa]Stat tracking, e.g. amount of blocks mined
[*:tnkgwqpa]Profile pages, probably not in this update
March 19 Twitter (jeb_) - Wolf health "They get a health boost when you tame them, and you can heal them using meat. Their tail shows how much health they have"
March 16 Twitter (Notch) - New ideas "Jens is working on the pet. I'm working on achievements and possibly stats. I got a new game idea last night. Tempting.. focus, Notch!!"
March 10 Twitter (Notch) - Silly secret project "Tomorrow, I'll be working on a silly secret project that will last all weekend. It's Minecraft related. I should sleep, but #jetlag"

Wolves are so awesome, and Jeb made them seem like they belong in Minecraft, they aren't some stupid pet from other games that you buy little coats and boots for.
It's highly likely they're being released tonight/in a few days, because mostly everything that was mentioned to be "in the next update" is finished - or at least playable.
Also, the MC servers went down a few hours ago presumably to prepare Minecraft and get ready to ship out the Beta 1.4 versions...
Is there any news on an ETA for the patch?
I'm exploding on the inside wanting me little wolvies :sad.gif:.
And their tail shows how much health they have? GENIUS :biggrin.gif:

yeah because that's the only reason why the server would be down

presumably
Notch: was going to surf the internet, but apparently Amazon is having an issue with their storage network, so it's down.

Wolves would be perfect for PvP - You just hit one person and your pack of wolves will just finish him off. Or perhaps there would be giant wolf fights on every PvP server...

Twitter (Notch) - Cookies and cocoa beans
I just added the cookie to 1.4, but you need cocoa beans to craft it.. Hmm.
Twitter (Notch) - What most of them stats are
Most of the stats are item usage and crafting info per item and block.
So far, Minecraft is tracking 662 statistics. The stats list page is annoying. I need a tree list feature!
Twitter (jeb_) - Not only when waking up
@notch bitchslapped me and forced me to change so that pressing 'leave bed' also sets the respawn point
