These seeds work in versions from Alpha v1.2.0 to Beta 1.7.3 (except for population differences). The actual version that was used to generate this panorama must have been a development version from Beta 1.6.6 to Beta 1.7, based on the file dates. Dinnerbone noted that the panorama was taken by Notch while he was travelling, around June 1–15, 2011.https://discord.com/channels/720723932738486323/721776112014721096/738514461597630535https://discord.com/channels/720723932738486323/721776112014721096/738517623637016706
