+## DESCRIPTION
+Apache Royale is a new implementation of the principles of Apache Flex, designed for JavaScript instead of Adobe Flash/AIR runtimes. Apache Royale improves developer productivity in creating applications to run wherever JavaScript runs, including on browsers as well as in Apache Cordova applications, Node, etc. 
+
+## ISSUES
+There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
+
+## RELEASES
+- Apache Royale 0.9.2 was released on March 16 2018.
+- Apache Royale 0.9.4 was released on November 14 2018.
+- Apache Royale 0.9.6 was released on October 1 2019
+
+## ACTIVITY
+- We are still investing a lot of time to support users who wanted to port their application from Flex to Apache Royale. 
+- Emulation of Flex components has been significant improved and it can be used with success for porting most of the existing MX components and some of the Spark.
+- WE have made significant refactoring towards better modularization of item rendereres.
+- The gap with missing in Jewel UI set ButtonBar and DataGrid has been successfully filled.
+- Royale compiler gets an improvement in data binding area.
+- Royale Docs continues to be improved as the project is developed.
+- We had a lot of activity on social networks, sharing what is happening in Apache Royale as we progress in the project. We think it is important to do this so people outside the project and not following it on a daily basis can get a notion of how we are doing. The numbers are:
+    - Our Twitter account has 643 (previously 610) followers.
+    - Our Facebook page has 147 (previously 144) likes.
+    - Our LinkedIn Group has 131 (previously 129) people.
+    - Our StackOVerFlow "apache-royale" tag currently has 44 (previously 43) questions.
+- We recently added a Slack channel, "royale", in the-asf.slack.com workspace as an experiment.
+
