@fleeky: sure, my idea of an "official" server means that people can have a stable and reliable way to test "what this wave thingy really is about". Ideally being hosted in Apache, so that no single person has access to it (single person = single point of failure in case things go wrong some day).
As for "unstable" server, I believe there is not much point in having one at Apache, unless we also have a stable and unstable branch in the source code (which I think we don't have at the moment) and we want to let people test alpha|beta features. Developers will deploy their own servers, so I believe there would be no need for anything in that regard. @grobmeier: awesome stuff, that sounds exactly like what we need. I usually hang out on some IRC servers, i'll search their server/room and lurk for a while, while we discuss the details here :-) @upayavira: nice, thanks for the effort. the server would definitely not be running critical service AFAIK, it would be just a technology showcase for the general public that may be interested in wave.
