❒ Minecraft for Mac 

I really can’t wait for the new version of Minecraft. I’ve been running a version behind (0.9652) for a while now (it’s hard work keeping 16 laptops up to date) and it’ll be great to get them and the server (which is a Mac (for extra complications!) up to date.

See the Minecraftedu blog for more information on the next release, which looks great… lot of new features for finer-grained control over the environment (and the kids!).

In Joel’s words:

We’ve been quite busy preparing the first public release of MinecraftEdu. You can see screenshots of the latest build below. This version will first be sent to our pilot schools in the next week, or so. And then after some testing, we will make MinecraftEdu available to the general public!
