John,
As a long-time lurker and initial contributor, I agree. The project has just
not ever hit critical mass. There have been several dedicated induvial, there
have been spurts of activity, and there is still much potential. However, the
project just hasn’t been able to move toward graduation within the Apache
eco-system. I would very much like to see development of wave continue in one
form or another, but there is not much benefit to wave or the apache community
by having it remain in incubation at this point. Hopefully Wave will can
continue to evolve elsewhere.
Of course, all of this is my own opinion.

All,
Based on the on going discussions, I wanted to call a formal discussion to
retire the Wave podling.
Wave has been incubating for 7 years now. In that period, you have
executed a couple of releases, but ultimately have not been able to sustain
a community around the project. As I've mentioned in other emails,
retirement isn't a failure of a project.
I plan to leave this discussion open for a few days to resolve any open
items, followed by a vote here, then a vote on the incubator list.
