Not going to 1.3 just yet, will wait and see what hMod people say about 1.3 - if it's going to be /ages/ then might just move to 1.3.

Anyway, reasons are:

No hMod - so no warping
No backups
No minecart mania (:$)
More difficult whitelist/admin privs etc.

Yeah, I know. And it seems to run so much better, too.

Right, had a quick look and situation is thus:

hMod: the guy that's been maintaining it since hey0 had a hissy fit is on holiday until the 28th, so presumably he'll only start looking at a new build some point after that. So potentially a month or so of sticking to 1.2

kMod: nothing posted/updated in about a month

Bukkit: God these people are /sooo/ shit at actually conveying information. Why isn't there a current status thing on their page, saying what stage Bukkit is at etc? I've found a link to a build that works with 1.3 via Twitter, but I've no idea what the fuck works/is supported because they are dicks. The last post on the bukkit.org page is from 6th of Feb ffs!

Aye, less of an issue now there's an UNDERGROUND RAILWAY too :D

My biggest concern is not the warps and that, but the backing up of stuff.

I'm going to keep reading about Bukkit and see what's what, but it's so hard to find any actual information.
