Curse PremiumAka the update after the mod is finished.
To be honest, this is just a tactic that adults use to make children be quiet.
I believe in the Invisible Pink Unicorn, bless her Invisible Pinkness.
I call them Lag Lovers.
Not cubic chunks, but fun nonetheless.

It's from the film "Holes", but I don't know if that is where it originally came from.
On topic:
It's been established that Mojang knows about this suggestion. Due to no one there directly stating CC is off the table, or even on the table, I think it's safe to assume they are at least considering it.
Well, I don't think it's established that Mojang knows about this. Maybe a few people in Mojang do, but we can't say the majority do. The more people in that company know about this the more likely it is one of them will start to think about it and say, "I think we should add that to the game."
If we could get a response from Mojang it would really help. Any sort of response would help. If it were a bad response like "WE WILL NEVER ADD CUBIC CHUNKS GUYS BECAUSE WE'RE ADDING BETTER THINGS LIKE FISHES AND FLOWERS SO GIVE UP AND LEAVE US ALONE!" Then we could all whine about greedy and stupid Mojang is. If it's a good response like "Hey guess what guys, we're going to put Cubic Chunks in Minecraft because it's the best idea ever and you guys are so cool and everyone who supported it gets a free cape!" Then we could all scream about how wonderful Mojang is and praise be to Jeb and all that.
The point is, any response from Mojang would be good. If it's positive, then well done everyone, give yourself a pat on the back. You just changed Minecraft. If it's negative, the ball is back in our court and we will refute their reason for not adding it. After all, if we can't find a good reason for not adding it, then they probably can't either.
As for assuming they are considering it, I don't like to assume anything. It tends to let you down.
As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;
And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!
-The Gods Of The Copybook Headings, by Rudyard Kipling.
Please don't.
I doubt people lobbying for Cubic Chunks don't legally own the game. There are probably a few here and there I guess, but torrents won't be a huge problem. I guarantee almost no one, if anybody, will DDoS Mojang just because they didn't put a suggestion into the game.
I prefer to be optimistic about stuff, and the reason why Mojang isn't talking about it is (probably) twofold:
1. If they say they're going to add it (as the proof of concept mod is now), or not going to add it, at least a part of the community will be enraged. Either a lot of people (including me) would say it is a stupid move not to add it, or quite a number of people would be saying (despite anything we can do) that Mojang is stealing from the community and that they are running out of ideas. Just look at what kind of controversy the implementation of the horses caused. This would be even bigger. It's much easier for them to keep us guessing, thereby not causing a scene and having time for..
2. Making it their own. To avoid quite a few insults aimed at them, Mojang would probably need to do it their own way (like with the lava issue above). Since this is CC, and they are probably busy with a few other stuff (DON'T SAY FLOWERS!), this could take some time untill it is (relatively) bug free.
If CC is added, I will rejoice and vow never to doubt Mojang again, but in the meantime it is probably better for them to keep the amount of hype low and work silently.
EDIT: awww... Not much for biomes also. seems like the "flower update". But wat is up with the packed ice? I also think there may be more to fishing. Gonna try it.
Take a look at the "Amplified" world type. Looks a bit like a implemented version of a certain suggestion...
I checked it out... and.. well... Click the spoiler for more info!
I also noticed a message that says "build limit is 256" Implying that it can go higher. I didn't notice it in normal.
NO.
Im fairly certain its not cubic chunks. They did say they hade plans beforehand, i dont have a link atm.
