Dear titaniumtown,

with all due respect but is this really a serious request? The most recent
"version" of the papermc-server is 1.15.2, what you are referring to as
version is just the build and as I clearly stated in a pinned comment (from
2019-09-03), I will not update the package for every new build:

> Unfortunately, upstream does not really have proper releases but instead
points to build-versions of the software. Note, I will not push every new
build of the package to the AUR but I will update the package upon new
minecraft releases, e.g. for 1.14.4 to 1.14.5.

Of course, there might be reasons why an update is still desirable and I
will no doubt do so then. However, I am not aware of any urgent change in
papermc and neither did I receive any mail or comment noting so. At the
very least, I would have wished for the requester to first contact me in
some way either via the comment section or by mail if he or she has strong
feelings about this issue. This has obviously not happened and I am quite
perplexed about this request. I would therefore kindly ask titaniumtown to
try out other ways of creating a discussion without resorting to orphan
requests.

In conclusion, I urge the trusted user who reviews this request to deny it.

Kind regards,
Gordian
