HI everybody,

I have a problem with a progressive loading using can-import in a stache template.  
The `{^to-parent}` live binding don’t works (the other binding, like the two-way, work correcly).

Here is the situation:

// inside a context I cannot bind the **name** prop of the child **mycomponent**  
`<can-import from="component/mycomponent/mycomponent"> <my-component {^name}="componentName" ></my-component> </can-import>`

the **name** prop is declared inside the mycomponent viewModel also with a default value.

Any idea?

Note: if using the import/require method in the module ( `import "component/mycomponent/mycomponent"` instead of the `<can-import from... >` ), instead it works.

Thanks a lot.

You might need `{^name}="../componentName"` to skip over the scope of the `can-import`.

`{^name}="componentName"` is probably trying to set `componentName` on the promise provided by `<can-import>`
