I didn't mention it, but this may be a blocker for some. For me, the JVM
kept running out of memory and failing the approval script when compiling
the royale-asjs examples. In particular, ASDoc requires a lot of memory
because it loads so many classes.

In the same directory as ApproveRoyale.xml, I created an
approveroyale.properties and specified custom jvm.args.

The default build.properties in royale-asjs has this:

jvm.args = -Xms64m -Xmx384m -ea -Dapple.awt.UIElement=true

In my approveroyale.properties, I changed it to this:

jvm.args = -Xms1g -Xmx2g -ea -Dapple.awt.UIElement=true

The values may not actually need to be this high, so if we decide to update
build.properties with new defaults after the release, we can experiment
with smaller values.
