Download Minecraft Snapshot 13w06a - Bug Fixes Galore

Hope you weren't expecting any new features in 13w06a because you're in for a lot of bug fixes instead. A whole heap of bugs have been squashed in Mojang's attempt to give us the polished version of Minecraft 1.5 with a pre-release on the horizon.

Add to the mix a little lighting optimization from Nathan and you've got yourself a more stable Minecraft 1.5 snapshot to play with. Things should feel a little faster, less laggy but there's still a lot more to come on the optimization front.
