1.7 is still nowhere near done. If people want, we could do a piston-only release and push the adventure stuff up to the next update.
And followed up with;
I see about 90% "yes" replies. No promises, but I'll discuss it with Jens tomorrow!

Its better if he releases them separately. The more stuff that goes into a patch, the more errors he will introduce. So if he releases pistons sooner, then by the time that the adventure stuff is released pistons shouldn't have many bugs left.

Ah, pistons are finally coming out. I am looking forward to this. Oh yes.

Eh? Eh? No?

*fistpump* Now I can get that flood gate working. And resetting an auto harvester will be far easier. And the hidden staircase will work. And maybe I can use it for obsidian farming. The possibilities are endless! Now if only I could find a slime... ^_--

New blog post: http://t.co/DLQbctb ! TL;DR: 1.7 this with with ONLY pistons. 1.8 in "a long time" with lots of cool adventure stuff.
"@notch - Twitter"
Wonder if the "this with with" part means "this week"..

Notch's latest tweet;

Hmm. Could not have selected a less suitable time for me. This upcoming weekend I am pretty much all set with birthday celebrations (*cough*WEDNESDAY*cough*) and other festivities. Damnit! Now I'm gonna be thinking about Pistons.

Well it will proberly take a week for Bukkit to update(Especially if Notch screws it up and has to release patch after patch).
, Tue Jun 28 2011, 05:37AM
True. But I'm still going to be thinking about Pistons this whole week.

Notch made a big deal about how this is just pistons (and MAYBE a few bug fixes). I doubt adding an item into the game will break things like 1.6 did.
dubien, Tue Jun 28 2011, 01:29PM
Since 1.7 will just be pistons, I don't think there will be many problems associated with them.
, Tue Jun 28 2011, 04:44PM
but even so even if the server needs an update i will be breaking out inv grid and pissing everywhere (piston+ing = pissing)

1.7 will include pistons, shears, redstone->repeater fix and fences on fences. It will not include the new lighting

Oh yeah, I forgot. 1.7 includes new cobblestone and clay brick textures

but why get rid of fences on fences! WHY!
SampleName, Wed Jun 29 2011, 02:28AM
No fences on fences? Honestly, how stupid can Mojang get?
Why remove a "glitch" that has always been allowed in the game? Sounds more like removing a feature rather than a glitch.
Looks like spawn/most other towns will have to get new lamp posts soon..
dubien, Wed Jun 29 2011, 04:00AM
You guys misunderstood him, they aren't removing fences on top of fences, they are making it easier to do so.

Dubien is correct:
@Kaizoman666 You will be able to place fences on top of fences
"jeb_"
Also looks like torches on fences will be possible:
@CnapKuu Yep, I recorded the piston clip. You could also see torches on fences in the clip =)
