I Think the reason that they have been so quiet lately is that they haven't gotten suggestions or are out of ideas, so lets storm the reddit thread or the suggestion forums
When you start a development project, it means you already have all the goals outlined that you plan to finish. Even if they were really that incompetent at software development, both the sub-reddit and the suggestions section here already have enough ideas to support Minecraft development for several human lifetimes, and that is after filtering out all the bad ones.
As others said, it's 5/23/15! From my standpoint, I see a few things that could happen:
1. Searge has no idea that 5/23/15 is World Turtle Day: He just wanted to hint at the first snapshot's release date.
2. Searge is fully aware that 5/23/15 is Word Turtle Day: It's a hint that turtles will be in Minecraft, but it doesn't mean anything else. (Not a release date for a snapshot.)
3. Searge is fully aware that 5/23/15 is World Turtle Day: He plans on adding turtles and releasing the first snapshot on that day.
4. Searge is just messing with us: Nothing at all is happening today.
To be honest, I think the majority of these teasing on Twitter are red herrings. Mojang is somewhat notorious for broken promises. We still don't have a nodding API, for example.

They are also notoriously bad at PR. Recently Searge sent people on a clue hunt, a big thread on reddit and everything, only to discover that it wasn't even Minecraft related at all. That sort of thing can get you fired, as MogMiner learned the hard way from his own PR disasters.

what do you mean? we were never promised a "nodding API" we were promised a MODDING API
I think that must be so you can hold a shield in one hand and a sword in your other hand, alternatively they could be adding the option for the player to be left handed, but I think the former is more likely due to this: https://twitter.com/Dinnerbone/status/602755916002373632.

Please don't PM me asking for help, I will just redirect you to the appropriate forum, where there are others who are far more skilled than me.
You can PROBABLY guess what handed I am judging by my username.
It has always been awkward using a right handed character being a left handed person in real life. I would love the option to change my character to a left handed one to fit my username and my real life too. In real life I am almost totally left handed. There is almost nothing I do the right handed way whatsoever. But in Minecraft, the noble left hand does nothing.
But it will still be cool if the left hand is for the shields.

"This is not a signature" - This statement is a paradox.
The creative menu's crafting grid doesn't work anyways.

Looks like it's about to be 5/24 in Sweden, hoping for a snapshot within the next two minutes!
Like them? Post on them! Say your opinion, or suggest more features!
If I had a nickel for every snapshot of 1.9, I would be a very poor man.

What are PR?
Public Relations. Or how you interact with the public.
For example teasing us all for so long.
CONSPIRICY!!!!! RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU SAW HIM DROP SOMETHING: *raises hand*
what do you mean? we were never promised a "nodding API" we were promised a MODDING API
This looks a bit interesting:

If this means dual wielding I will cry. Dreams becoming true!
GENERATION 28: When you see this put it in your signature and add 1 to the generation.

This is not the signature you are looking for.
Banners and such things
How does one do stuff without Mrs.Right?

Oops, sorry, it's my stupid auto correct.
Left hand helps with holding maps too.
Praise be to Spode.
