Here's everything announced during the Minecraft PE Q&A livestream

Earlier today, the Minecraft Pocket Edition team did a Questions & Answers livestream in celebration of 30 million purchases of Minecraft PE. For those of you who didn't watch the livestream, we've compiled a super amazing list of all the big questions below.

Q: Will the redesigned boats coming to Pocket Edition be coming to PC Edition?
A: It depends on what the PC team says.

Q: When will Minecraft PE get controller and keyboard/mouse support?
A: Controller support possibly around Fall 2015, no plans for keyboard/mouse support.

Q. Will sneak/sprint be coming to Pocket Edition?
A. Yes, most likely alongside the new controls in an unspecified update.

Q. Will a debug screen (like F3 on PC) be added to Pocket Edition?
A. Probably not, but maps are coming as a substitute to finding your location.

Q. Will infinite Nether/End dimensions come to Pocket Edition?
A. They are planned, but there is a lot of work to do before that is possible.

Q. When will skins be implemented?
A. In Minecraft PE 0.11.0 you will be able to choose your skin as Steve, Alex, your own custom-made skin, and possibly future skin packs.

Q. Is world-exporting in Pocket Edition coming soon (without using other tools)?
A. It's not in current plans, but may be added in the future.

Q. Are there going to be more Pocket Edition developers?
A. There will be three new developers, one starting this month and one in March (last has not been hired yet).

Q. How far will development of Pocket Edition go?
A. Mojang plans to add all features present in the PC Edition, if they are possible (mods, for example, are likely not possible).

Q. Will Redstone be implemented in Pocket Edition?
A. Redstone will be implemented before PE goes into beta stage. The team mentioned it does take a lot of time to implement, and it will cause lag on older devices.

Q. Is Minecraft Realms coming back to Pocket Edition?
A. Yes, one of the developers is focusing on Realms development. The team hopes to have it implemented by the end of 2015.

Q. What happened to Ocelots in Minecraft Pocket Edition 0.9.0?
A. The team didn't have enough time to complete fishing in 0.9.0, which would be required for Ocelots. Both are planned for MCPE in the near future.

The rest of the questions were mostly general questions or duplicates, but you get the idea. See the source link for the livestream link.
