Minecraft 1.8 Leaked On 4Chan By Notch! (Maybe)

While Notch isn't directly admitting to anything, crafthub is reporting that on 4chan someone leaked the minecraft 1.8 adventure update by of course anonymous. Then over on twitter Notch had this to say:

notch Markus Persson 

(I am fine with you using it. Make sure you get it from the leaked url we are hosting, though)

If you do use it, remember to report bugs, and to feel slightly bad. ;)

Ooh, looks like 1.8 has leaked, not that I'd ever admit that. ;) Be careful when installing software you don't trust though.

Which I believe the links are:

client jar is http://assets.minecraft.net/1_8-pre/minecraft.jar
server link is http://assets.minecraft.net/1_8-pre/minecraft_server.jar

Note the minecraft.net domain.  Not sure how this is going to go with server auth needed to play so regardless use at your own risk! Woot!
