I agree too. This project/community doesn't make enough progresses for being under Apache umbrella.
However regarding the future of the project I still work in my own fork that can benefit Wave, so I want to keep Wave somewhere. >From a practical standpoint, I did recap this tasks (what else?) - Name for the GH organization / project? e.g. WaveCommunity or WaveProtocol / Wave - Who want to be member of the new GH organization. - Website replacing incubator.apache.org/wave/ and the wiki... e.g. just a GH page/site - New communication channels, replacing incubator mailing lists. e.g. slack or another mailing list? Ask and add those who want to follow new channels.
