	* Developer [[Minecraft:Ulraf]] in a livestream expressed the idea of giving the dragon egg the use of modifying the [[Minecraft:world spawn]], because there is only one dragon egg per world. He clarified that he experimented with this idea using [[Minecraft:command]]s, and that there weren't plans to add this function to vanilla.<ref> https://youtu.be/2cxUNoWNy50?t=11284</ref>		* Developer [[Minecraft:Ulraf]] in a livestream expressed the idea of giving the dragon egg the use of modifying the [[Minecraft:world spawn]], because there is only one dragon egg per world.

	* The writer of the ''Minecraft'' comic ''WonderCraft'', Samcube, was requested by [[Minecraft:Mojang Studios]] to create official ''Minecraft'' posters.
