Well JimMoriarty, those aren't actually snapshots, since if you look at vanilla Minecraft, were the 1.7.5 or 1.6.4 updates snapshots? No, they were just updates. So these are not snapshots.

In reference to the OP, because Mevans isn't Mojang, and you can't expect him to do everything Mojang does. Just wait patiently for the update to come out!
