Is the GraphQL spec itself under the BSD+patents clause? Or just their specific implementation? Couldn’t somebody like the Apollo crew create their own implementation if necessary?

The issue with the GraphQL spec is that people actually want a patent grant for alternative implementations, but there isn't one.
