Board Report 09 2024

Description:

The mission of Apache Royale is the creation and maintenance of software related to improving developer productivity in creating applications for wherever Javascript runs (and other runtimes)

Project Status:

Ongoing Issues for the board: @hiedra has tried to contact @iemejia on issues with her Visual Studio Subscription in order to create an additional release machine instance. There was a response to the first mail, but not to the follow-ups. It could be the mails are buried in a spam folder, but maybe there are other ways of contacting Ishmael we have not thought of.

Membership Data:

Apache Royale was founded 2017-09-20 (7 years ago) There are currently 20 committers and 16 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 5:4.

Community changes, past quarter:

• No new PMC members. Last addition was Hugo Ferreira on 2022-10-27.
• No new committers. Last addition was María José Esteve on 2021-11-23.

Project Activity:

Release has been held-up by aforementioned Visual Studio issue and limited availability on the part of the current RM. It may be necessary to get a release out with the current tools and delay the instance creation for a later time. The last release was done in June 23.

Community Health:

Most of the activity has been in the compiler repository, with no notable features added in the two others. We are seeing a decrease in the dev list which has generally been the main discussion forum for the community. There are some new Apache Royale users in commercial projects, but this is not being reflected in the mailing lists.
