Welcome back to Modification of the Month where we predicted my inability to catch the date correctly from the get-go! We're only a week late, though. Taking bets on how late we'll be next time.
Not much this month, either, as we continue to work through infrastructure improvements and cool new things.

- 2019-12-12: totemo updated the server to PaperSpigot #236, which is the final update in the 1.14.4 series.
- 2019-12-12: totemo updated BungeeCord and in the lobby ProtocolLib and ViaVersion to support 1.15 client connections to the lobby.
- 2019-12-14: totemo set up a Trello board and began planning the 1.15 plugin updates. PaperSpigot has started producing 1.15 builds.
- 2019-12-15: totemo began work on 1.15 updates.
pve-dev
is currently running 71 plugins on 1.15 and it seems reasonably happy. ModMode has problems with the new LuckPerms API and it has unresolved issues from the 1.14 era, so I'll resolve that with a rewrite. CommandHelper has changed a lot, again, as it does often and many scripts will need some fixes to keep it happy.
