Thanks Olrech and Pamela! Please forgive me if I'm being dense here, but it looks like the APIs you're listing are designed for creating wavelets within an existing wave, or spawning a new wave from an existing wave. The issue being that robots are--and please correct me if I'm wrong--designed to listen in on an existing wave and react to activity within the wave. What we're looking to do, on the other hand, is run services external to Wave, and based on external events, communicate to Google Wave that a new top level wave (not wavelet) needs to be created with a set of participants.
Now, as I type this I'm thinking that I might be able to use the current APIs in an unorthodox way to get this functionality. Perhaps I can manually create a starter wave with myself and a monitor robot as participants to bootstrap the robot. Once it's running, the bot can 'pull' any new wave notifications from our external service and spawn new waves with the appropriate participants. Still, it seems like some kind of Google Wave listening service that would allow us to 'push' requests to Wave would be a more straightforward and efficient mechanism, but this should be enough to get us started.
