Hi everyone, (In case you missed it, Thomas is referring to a recent blogpost: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/update-on-google-wave.html)
This is very recent news and we're in the process of figuring out exactly how we scale down the engineering effort within Google. As for what it means for the wave federation protocol, it is also an open question: there is certainly an opportunity for continuing this community effort. If you've not been following along lately, there was a recent talk at OSCON which includes an overview of who is using the protocol so far, and what code is available. The slides are embedded in this live wave: http://bit.ly/oscongwtalk We'll share more information when we know more about Google's plans. In the meanwhile, we're continuing our work to open source more of our source code and do some clean-up on the existing open source code. We recently open sourced Splash, a new (currently read-only) client interface built on top of the Wave Data APIs, which you can find and use: http://code.google.com/p/wave-protocol/wiki/SplashInstallation Additionally, we've submitted a patch to Apache Shindig that contains the code for the wave gadgets JS API: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-1401?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel You can watch the wave-protocol-code-discuss forum ( http://groups.google.com/group/wave-protocol-code-discuss ) to see more code releases as they happen.
