Mojang has revealed this week's Snapshot! We have an exciting list of changes, including the following:
New language translations. We changed from using Google Docs to a new system, so these may still contain a lot of errors or missing texts. Please check the Minecraft forums (language section) for more info.
Slightly smoothed color transitions between biomes
Reduced brewing time to 20 seconds
Decreased randomness of Enchantment Tables
Changed colors of spawning eggs to more represent the mobs they spawn
Made biomes slightly more varied (hills in forests and deserts, beaches)
Added world type options (currently only super-flat and default)
Removed collision box from ladders
Updated fence gate collision box to align with fences
Mojang went on to add the following about the highly anticipated modding API:

We are currently still preparing work for the mod API. The API is going to take some time to implement properly, so we ask for patience :smile.gif: Also, Jon is currently working on improving the AI for mobs to make it easier for us to add new behaviors. The first goal is to add breeding support to wolves, and then move on to more useful / interesting villagers.
One almost wonders if future wars betweeen villages will be possible, or even quests.
I have a question though. Did apples coming from trees get added in this one? I havent tried the other snapshots. But figured I would add this one. I'm making a minecart track to my cave and I punched some leaves outta the way and got an apple. O_o I'm playing vanilla, no mods what so ever. LOL
Some old terrain gen back, wolf breeding, etc.! Jeb is doing the total OPPOSITE of what Notch has been doing, Jeb is LISTENING to the community!!! Minecraft is FINALLY starting to get better now! Sure I didn't mind the new changes too much, but it's good to see some of the old Minecraftreturn! Ex: some of the old world gen.
There is probably a million comments about this but... Slime's with spawn anywhere if you change the world type to "Super Flat". I'm not an expert on slime's so I don't know really whats happening but it needs to be fixed.

My favorite three additions thus far in 1.1. It's also nice to see the biome color transition thing get (slightly) smoother. The first one is because the randomness irks me. The second because it'll add variety into the non-mountain biomes. The third because.. finally! I loved it when they added fence gates, but that little issue always annoyed me.

"I don't plan to add a new dimension at the moment. It's just to performance heavy on servers, and the current dimensions need more attention before we start adding new ones." < Yeah, like biomes or actual varied terrain in the nether. Nether ruins didn't do the trick at all.
if i behave weird in my post; it's not that i am weird actually. I like to pretend being weird just for the satisfaction of me and to make the community feel more normal. herpy herpy derp. btw, comic sans.
Sweet! All we need now in the way of mob spawn eggs is for there to be an enderdragon one :biggrin.gif:

Everything else is good.
