This has been a busy week! Mojang has moved to their new office; it looks great but is still far from finished. They still squeezed in some work on Minecraft, so here’s the new snapshot:
Features:
You can now use “/publish” to open your single-player game for LAN friends to join. This is still very much work in progress, so it lacks some necessary settings such as what game mode your friends will get, and if they should be able to use cheats or not. Also, the “/publish” command is temporary, you can’t even access it if you haven’t enabled cheats =)
The Ender Chest has been changed to have an inventory per player and not per world. Also, knocking down the chest will break it into 8 obsidian, unless you have Silk Touch.
The texture pack folder button now works on Mac
Fixes:
Fixed bug when Minecraft doesn't save your progress, stops generating chunks and freezes all the mobs.
Fixed the Enderdragon not dealing any damage to the player after it has been hit once
Fixed explosions not pushing back players
Fixed buckets not picking up or placing water within the spawn protection
We're obviously getting VERY close if this one is mainly just small tweaks and bug fixes.

I know what it means to be alone,
I sure do wish I was at home.
I don't care what the neighbors say,
I'm gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain't ever gonna part.
I like that ender chests are now per player, but why do they break into 8 obsidian? We lose an eye AND have to recraft it. Its already very difficult to make 2 of them to be able to take advantage of them.

Cast aside your festive doylaks: dragon stuff is about to happen.
Multiplayer is lonely once you understand how it actually works.
Fix for the lighting at world generation issue yet? NOPE, not important because bugs give a game "character" I guess... Also very much unhappy that breaking an Enderchest doesn't drop an Enderchest.

Probably to prevent people from making the Ender Chest too easily every single time, considering how they keep items safe from anything. They are more of an emergency storage rather than place all your items in it and drag them anywhere you want and remove the need for a home base.
I wish they would add something like tabs for the enderchest so that one tab would be YOURS and the other one would be public.
Great idea and all, but how would what work on dedicated servers? That would make it VERY easy to steal things from one-another on a competitive server. Now, we each have a private chest which only we can see the contents of, and even if someone else looks in there, they only see what they put in before.
Am I the only one who doesn't download the snapshots? I'm waiting for the official 1.3 to come out =) ... Gratification delay ftw. I'm going to have so much fun with all the new stuff in my world.

I said this. Two days later, my computer's motherboard melted down and I had to get a new one with Windows 8.
Irony in the first degree.
thx

Because a world-wide server would require port-forwarding which is a pain in the butt for anyone who doesn't already know how to do it.

That would be GREAT.

Un Zip it? Then you take the .jar, and drop it by the real .jar.

You, my friend, are SLOW.
