I watched Transmission #16 last night and wrote up notes as a written reference. There was a lot of good info for people who have been asking questions about the direction of Meteor. Please take these notes as general gist, and if you want to know what they actually said just watch the video.

### Vue.js as basis of Blaze 2.0
(1:46)
* Sashko suggests people try out Vue.js with Meteor first, in order to work out any kinks in integration.
* MDG would be willing to make Vue a recommended view layer alongside React, Angular, and Blaze with accompanying documentation once more people test out the compatibility with Meteor
* After this point would be the time to look at building on top of Vue.js for Blaze 2.0
* Sashko is also interested in following the development of Svelte, a new UI framework with a syntax similar to Blaze/Handlebars, but it only handles the conversion of template to JS, and not the runtime library that runs it.
### Redis Oplog
(7:43)
* Sashko first impressions of Redis Oplog
* Distinction from Mongo Oplog: Mongo oplog knows about db changes regardless of source of change (such as from external services). Redis oplog only knows changes made through the Meteor app.
* Benefits:
* A new set of tradeoffs available. Mongo Oplog may be more intuitive, Redis more scalable especially since it could allow you to specify db changes that trigger updates or not.
* Potentially can integrate with systems outside Meteor
* Ben and others are excited about enabling the package to be succesful. If succesful it could be a great integration point between GraphQL and Meteor.
