Questions concerning 1.14

Hey there! I have some questions about 1.14 that I believe are necessary for other users to know, too.

1)
    Will there be a server reset?

           So this is a concern many players may also have. A 1.14 server reset. I'd like to know whether there will be one, as it seems logical - the texture changes from default, new animals causing spawning glitches, new blocks causing lag / glitches, as the server may not be compatible, etc. As well as the new design of villages and the new villagers / villager concepts causing the game to break.

2)
    Is / Will there be a snapshot server to see what the server will be like in 1.14?

             Simple question, self explanatory.

3)
   Animal Spawning problems, etc?

            With all the new mobs coming in the 1.14 "Village 'n Pillage" update, I have concerns about land animals becoming rarer. We have seen this with the 1.13 server; squids are now practically extinct on the server, and the server economy has became, well unstable - I fear for land mobs such as Villagers becoming extremely rare - with the pillagers and all. (We have seen that we are in a great depression). 

               Thank you for reading and answering (if you are a mod and have actually answered). I am very curious about what is to come with the server in 1.14, as other players are.

Allow me to provide an OFFICIAL response :)

1 - Staff and I are in talks about the map status I.E Reset/dual-map/etc. I will update when we've reached a conclusion.

2 - Yes! We have a snapshot server - snapshot.oasis-mc.us it's run by me and it's on Oasis hardware. I try my best to keep it updated but if it's not, just ping me in Discord and I'm pretty quick about updating it :)

3 - This is a known bug, because the map we currently have was generated on 1.13 code yet we run 1.13.2 code. It has somethign to do with the chunk metadata. (We've seen this behavior before - a map reset fixes this but it's not permanent as we tend to run later iterations of MC on older versions for various reasons).
