+Project Status as of July 2022
+===
+
+This project is currently in a somewhat broken state that we are working to rectify. We expect to have updated releases by the end of July 2022.
+
+**Support Status**
+
+Protobuf JavaScript is widely used and well maintained internally at Google but does not currently have staffing for more than minimal support for this open source project.  
+
+**Contributing**
+
+Due to our limited support resources, we are also limited in the kinds of contributions we can accept:  
+* Small bug fixes may be accepted where they have limited compatibility concerns. 
+* Feature requests will generally not be accepted,  except for those referring to build or tooling integration.
+* Most other PRs will be rejected until this policy is revisited.
