What staff's response? All I could find is that since it wasn't updated to 1.14. Which has been done as of now, it couldn't run vivecraft, and that they'd have to test it with vivecraft... the main issue, to my knowledge, is that 2d users wouldn't be able to connect to the VR server easily, cause they'd have to get the vivecraft client (which is easy to do)
Here's the link to the vivecraft main page:

Here's the link to the client side stuff: https://github.com/jrbudda/Vivecraft_114/releases
Edit: Here's the link to the most recent spigot plugin release as well:
