Minecraft 1.9 pre-release: get it while its hot!

Mojang has released their 1.9 pre release, if you want it, get the jar file here. The new released content contains some new crafting abilities, such as an enchantment table and some other new crafting options. They have also added baby animals that evolve into grown farm animals that you have known so well. And there is the chance to meet a big nosed NPC or the rare mushroom cow. The Levelling has evolved into putting a little number between your hunger and heath showing your current level, which is a start, but until they add some reason for all the experience you are bestowed, its no where near finished. I am actually quite curious as to how they will play this out, the amount of upgrades you would be able to inherit onto your current character would be very limited, but if you were able to throw fireballs out of your bare hands... now that would be awesome. Hey, if you can fell a tree with your bare hands, why not?
