So I decided to rewrite my orginal post on 1.7 news due to it being all over the place and not showing keydetails. So I'm going to orginize this one a lot better.
**Note:All info was gathered from either Twitter or Official wiki's of Minecraft.**
Also thanks for reading I put some time into this one ~Fishtown :)

Dinnerbone rumored a new feature on his twitter. It looks like it's just something blank, but he says it's not.
If your talking about the "achivement" I showed that off on my last post but it's not enough to post here I want hard evidence to post it.
I'm talking about this tweet that dinnerbone made. https://twitter.com/Dinnerbone/status/365129796990144512
Guys, thats a darkened troll face, it you run it through photoshop right or turn your monitor's brightness all the way up then look at it in the right way (if you have a flatscreen) you can see it.
It's quiet obvious it's a trollface and my point about hard evidence comes through :P
For some reason I feel as if Minecraft is copying Feed the beast o_O
Add Redwood forests-http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Redwood_Forest#Redwood_Forest
And in Redwood forests come Podzol??-http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Podzol
Had in the last thread but there are cherry trees as well.
Also they are completely redoing the achievment and statistic system.
The redwood forest's & Achivement system are cover in the post, the cherry trees are backed now to rumor. Saying it's being desined but is not 100% on this update as of yet.
*Note the "unamed new biome," is the redwood forest.
New Cliff biome announced by Jeb :)
Can't wait for this update, it looks awesome! :D
Does anyone know when this is planned to be released?
Mojang says they should be done in september, but they always release about a month later than the date they released.
Don't forget about the release that fixes bugs
There is no planned release as of yet. I've been telling people late in Sept. for the reason it's before Minecon, and Mojang is putting out a lot of spoilers which they normally don't start doing till snapshots and we haven't even seen one as of yet.
