I am sitting in Vienna, more than a bit drunk on good beer, and I just had
some
'had to be had' conversations with my dying father, so my inhibitions
(already normally low) are even lower.  But my opinion about Google Wave
is based on going to Google IO and asking four Wave developers how Google
Wave related to the ideas of Douglas Engelbart, and none of these
developers had ever heart of Doug Englebart.

So my official opinion, which no doubt I will regret when sober, is that
Google and Google Wave can choke and die on a big bag of dicks in
a cave.

Cheers,
Rich
