Hey,
would it be possible to implement an API in 1.3 witch makes it possible to make the minecraft noteblock sounds with a computer.
so if you type a code like this:
sound.play("piano","c#")
you hear a "c#" played by a piano.

1.3 is feature locked.
You could make a peripheral that can allow you to play sounds, though.

A Disk Drive would be one example.
In real life: Your keyboard, monitor, printer, … could all be considered peripherals.

That would bloat and overcomplicate the computers, especially for new people.
When they type "help" right now, there are a few lines of programs; if it comes to the point where the whole screen fills up, it'll be very hard for new people to figure out where to get started.

I don't think it is a big issue to add lots of APIs or extend existing APIs as long as the amount of shell programs stays reasonable.
The APIs aren't there for normal users but for programmers. And if they can't handle it, they shouldn't make programs :3

Normal procedure for software development, you choose a set date that when hit no more features may be added. After this date you can only work on improving stability and bug fixing of existing features until the release date for the software or patch.

You mean we will not get more features untill 1.4? It's better.
Probably Minecraft itself unable to be feature locked
