It occurs to me that the older versions of the Minecraft server generated terrain that differs considerably to that of the current servers in terms of shape and natural landmarks. Thusly I would like to ask if anyone knows of a place where I can download the old versions, or ask if anyone can send me an old .zip which they are in possession of.
And before anyone reminds me I'm aware that I won't be able to connect to a server running the old version.
I think what he wants is the .dat from a old server because the land features were different then.
So he needs to get a old server,
run it until its done generating,
transfer the .dat file to the new server,
use the new server with the old .dat file.

I think your best bet would be to ask notch.
Yeah, I've been on IRC a few times in the last few months but haven't seen him.

Ya, the old version of servers doesn't let anybody connect. It gives a message saying "server is outdated" when you try to connect.

I was thinking the master server would reject it because it would only allow verified new versions.
