I don't know anything about the the technical glitches with invites, but there is more than enough open information on http://waveprotocol.org/ and code at http://code.google.com/p/wave-protocol/ To keep one busy for two months.

Augurae, I think it's not so easy to balance such a complex product right from the beginning. Imagine millions of users interacting on a "product in construction" at the same time. Operational Transform is not just your common RDBMS app. First you have to figure out where the borders are and you can incrementally improve... david On Tue, Sep 29, 2009 at 10:58 PM, Augure wrote: > > I think that their move to prevent power users either devs or not, to > access the most important google product about to be released, even 4 > month after the presention, is not really smart, nor open source-like, > it will only get power users & dev pissed off, and prevent the buzz to > grow especially amongst casual user if there are too few early > adopters. > > Plus, altough wave seems to be a great product, its functions & > principles are pretty natural and easy to adopt, so I wouldn't Be > surprised if other start-ups starts showing up with alternatives. > > I hope the 100k accounts will be enough especially for those who > signed 4 month ago right after the IO keynote, otherwise they really > should send more. > > On Sep 29, 2:16 pm, "Jerry N." wrote: > > Dislike. > > > > I did have one of those invites.. but they never sent me the user > > name nor password... > > Kinda is sad. > > > > On Sep 28, 1:41 am, Tony Hoyle wrote: > > > > > > > > > On 23 Sep, 23:05, Galen Mullins wrote: > > > > > > As far as my knowledge goes Wave opens its doors on the 31st.

[Google Wave APIs] Re: Are people still receiving invitations?
I think that their move to prevent power users either devs or not, to access the most important google product about to be released, even 4 month after the presention, is not really smart, nor open source-like, it will only get power users & dev pissed off, and prevent the buzz to grow especially amongst casual user if there are too few early adopters. Plus, altough wave seems to be a great product, its functions & principles are pretty natural and easy to adopt, so I wouldn't Be surprised if other start-ups starts showing up with alternatives. I hope the 100k accounts will be enough especially for those who signed 4 month ago right after the IO keynote, otherwise they really should send more.

I even *had* an invite but never got access.. only a very few got in. Mostly developers in the US who could attend a special google presentation I believe. > Also will I be able to start developing and posting gadgets as soon as > it opens on the 31st or will developer privileges still be in limited > distribution?

All I want to do is start playing with Google Wave I know how you feel - had two months of developer time that I could have allocated to wave, and it passed by with no Wave & now there's no time left! AFAIK the 31st isn't 'open' fully it's an extra 100,000 invites (this time to non-developers). Given that they've probably got a couple of million requests in the queue you might get lucky but don't hold your breath.
