Hey guys. Update coming today. Sorry for the lack of regular ones, I've been having other priorities lately.
I'm currently sifting through all the stuff that's been posted on Twitter and the blog, and I'm also going to remove a few items of the current list. It's going to take a while. :sad.gif:
Additionally, if there has been any interesting interview or podcast with new info, please let me know. I haven't been following the news lately.
On the "mined state," Notch has recently mentioned on Twitter that he may store the "current damage" of blocks temporarily (he mentioned 10 seconds). That sounds good enough to me.
Honestly, what's wrong with calling it Australium? Seriously.
Nothing is "wrong" about it.
It's just mixing TF2 with Minecraft and also causing a shitload of misconceptions about the block. It's also obviously never going to be the official name. A neutral name like "lightstone" is a pretty good one for a placeholder.

God dammit, Notch tweets like a mother****er. And it's mostly irrelevant noise.
Anyway, there you go.

I'm still going through all the new info, but it'll be up soon.
Second post in the thread has transcripts from podcasts and interviews.
EDIT: Updated!
There was actually not much information to add. 90% of his tweets this last couple of weeks were completely irrelevant.

I'm still here. Just been busy.
A big update is coming this weekend.

SMP damage only on beta, as it could potentially ruin multiplayer if it's introduced before everything else works as intended.
Portals, probably soon.

Please read the Minecrat Facts thread before suggesting things that are already confirmed.

Yep. That's how we feel about this thread too.

No, it's the new grass colors. They're usually darker now due to the biomes, so it looks darker at night.

If it's a level generator bug, Notch would love to have the seed value (stored in that file) to see what's wrong.

He's JUST starting. Give it some time. :smile.gif:
