Facebook grants full patent rights to all GraphQL users

The Facebook team has granted full patent rights to all users of the GraphQL specification, licensing it under the Open Web Foundation Agreement (OWFa) v1.0. This change provides a clear and unambiguous grant of patent rights, allowing anyone to use GraphQL in any setting without worrying about copyright or patent issues. The GraphQL.js reference implementation will also be relicensed under the MIT license, which is a permissive and widely-used open source license. This move aims to empower as many people as possible to adopt GraphQL, making it easier for developers to build and contribute to GraphQL projects without legal concerns.
