As a student I first experienced Google wave back when I was in grade 8 and at the time couldn't contribute or really take advantage of the system. I followed it to 'wave in a box' and to the incubator but only just learning the programming skills to contribute in development. I was looking forward to seeing development into its original plans like the UI as depicted by http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfqThLudfEg. The current incubator's goals and forward development is a bit vague and probably needs a redo since situations changed. If you move Apache wave to GitHub the enthusiasts which are pretty much who are left will follow, Wave will still survive.
just a newbies opinion.
