It also seems that if you update you can still get on the server with people who haven't updated.. atleast that is what i noticed this morning when I logged on and people there said they updated.
We just released 1.7.3, fixing a few piston bugs. Who knew such a "minor" feature would have so many corner cases, eh?
Thankfully, we got a lot of testing help from the Bukkit team. Behind the scenes, we've been testing the "modding api" (which in reality is just the full source code behind a license saying you can only use it to make free stuff, and that everything you make based off that can only be playable by people who have bought Minecraft) with them, and it's going very well.
We need to do some website infrastructure to allow anyone to sign up, but things are progressing nicely.
