Hi, I'm a bit confused with this. 4J Tweeted awhile back that they we're going to release or start development on texture packs after 1.8.2. It is now 1.0.1 and we haven't heard anything about progression with texture packs in 2 months. Are they working on them? Sorry if I'm sounding pushy, and I know all the work they've been doing espeicially since TU 8 is out now, but I would've appreciated using the texture packs in 1.8.2 and waited until Feb/Mar for the TU 8 :).
