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.
