No Java 16

I needed Java 16 to build something, and I had to get a package from the AUR to fulfill it. Java 16 has been present for almost 3 months, and has sources and binary builds readily avaliable. Why is the official jdk-openjdk package still not updated?

Re: No Java 16

The package jre-openjdk has been flagged out of date for about three months, so I assume #6 applies.

Re: No Java 16

I use jdk-adoptopenjdk now, which is up to date.
