Patents

We updated out patents grant https://code.facebook.com/posts/1639473982937255/updating-our-open-source-patent-grant/

Week in Review

Misc

@gaearon is working on something for context propagation to update partially deep

@jsfb

Switch to parent context landed on github

@sebmarkbage

Talked a little bit about data structures we use internally and the need for back references (from child back to parent)
- Would be useful for several things (improper DOM structure warning, fragments, new reconciliation algorithm)
Has been thinking about ways to make rendering a bit more agnostic and make it share more with react-native
- One part of this is moving away from the DOM itself and thinking about a layering strategy in conjunction with webGL or canvas (Note: we're nowhere near doing this)
Went to Google & met with Angular team https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QZxArgMwidgCrAbuSikcB2iBxkffH6w0YB0C1qCsuH0/edit?pli=1 (Note: they take better meetings than @zpao)

@spiceyj

Working on error boundaries, lots of details to figure out

@andrewimm

Working on ParseReact
Volunteered to work on observe() for React core

TC-39 Update

Property initializers proposal went well
- Babel already has them and people are using that for React
Object spread is still looking good
Immutable - interest but could be a big undertaking to get it implemented in engines
- May be able to use Custom Value Types (another proposal) as a way to get something going
