React Native and Yoga Both Given MIT Licence by Facebook

If that were true then why are they changing the licence at all?

They have tooling and are well positioned but what they need is big players to also back them so that people are more incentive to buy in. That is where moving the licence to MIT makes sense.

To buy in for what? If literally everybody apart Facebook stops using React, the project will still go on because it powers a shitload of FB properties.

But then they wouldn't get the free labor of the community.

I think we are saying the same thing. Which part of what I said do you disagree with?
