Oh dear:

   EMBER 2.0 BETA

   Model-View-Controller is replaced by Model-Route-Component-Service.
   Two-way bindings are replaced by data down, actions up (DDAU).

I haven't delved into the details, but it looks like things are starting to move in the direction of React. I'm not entirely surprised. We recently built a full scale app with Ember and Ember Data. Now looking back, React with Backbone feels it could have been an equally good (if not better) choice.
