React may have changed to MIT but React-Native and other projects still use the BSD+Patents license.

EDIT: this apparently was fixed last month.

React Native has been updated to MIT too: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/master/LICENSE

Actually now React Native uses the MIT license, this was changed in February: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/26684cf3adf4...

It's not the quality of the code I'm concerned about. It's more a matter of principle, and the fact that every use of their software possibly contributes to their reputation and appeal to highly qualified developers.

Yep, participation is a form of advocacy.

> AFAIK the licenses are ok

What about that patent license noncompetition thing? That's cool? Or did that get pulled?

It's been changed.

It's only been changed for their most popular projects, though.
