Minecraft Snapshot 12w24a released, lets your friends join you

Are you ready for a new snapshot? Too bad, because here it is! This week adds much anticipated local network multiplayer. This lets you run a server locally (on the same network) without loading the world into a server jar, but simply letting your friends join you, without having to mess with servers. This is activated by typing /publish into the chat (this is a temporary command, and the entire feature is buggy right now). In other news, Ender Chests now sync across all Minecraft worlds now. The button that opens the texture pack folder now works on Mac OS X, and the usual bug fixes.
