A friend of mine, who runs a few Minecraft servers for Czech players, has offered help to MCServer by holding an event where players would build structures they'd like to see generated in MCServer - something like YouAreMinecraft, but for structures. So we could get "blueprints" for things such as NPC villages, jungle temples, new tree types etc. from them. Of course they will need to get implemented among the structure generators, but we could have some cool features generated by default, which the vanilla doesn't have 
I'm glad that MCServer has sparked such interest in the community.
Now I need to think about some guidelines to provide to them, specifying what it is we exactly need. One thing is size - I don't think it's a good idea to integrate something that's larger than one chunk in the XZ size, for example. Also redstone machines would be problematic, since the redstone support is lacking to say the least.
If anyone can think of such a guideline, be sure to share your thoughts here.
