What with all these new features, I REALLY want 1.3 released, but I know if they rush it too much, it will be horribly buggy. I'm torn on thinking they ''should they slow down or speed up?''

I have'nt downloaded the snapshot, however, all the changes look awesome, especially NPC trading. Shooting lava/water out of dispensers is nice, and will undoubtedly be used in various SMP traps/obsidian generators. As for the emerald ore, Id better generate some new chunks... I'll live with the gravel texture, and the Ender chests will probably be much more useful to me now that priest's can provide a steady supply of Eyes of Ender. NPC's also now allow you to get various previously ungettable things in survival, like Bottle o' Enchanting and Chain armor( the boots, anyway.) The villages being styled to the biome seems interesting, I wonder what a jungle biome one would look like? As for the pyramids, this could be the beggining of much more interesting exploration. Of course, in all my many desert explorations, I have only found 1 sanstone well, so I probably won't have fantastic luck with that. TNT traps around the map will make me eternally paranoid. Just my thoughts on the snapshot.

When I first saw this, I realized I needed villagers. I live in a village, but all the inhabitants kicked the bucket long ago,and I have a huge building I'm still working on there, so I can't just move. I also found another village, thousands of blocks away from here. So that's why I'm in an abandoned mineshaft, combing the ground for rails. On my opinions on the trading, it appears they won't make it into, if a single gem is 20 raw chicken. If they add an ore, I'd better be prepared to generate some new chunks...
