I watched and was greatly impressed by the video demo of Google's new Wave collaborative communication system. I believe it would/will help with some of the chronic problems we (and others) have.
I watched that too. It appears to be heavily reliant on *very* fast internet access for participants in a wave. That's far from universal in the Python community, let alone the internet at large. It also appears to be heavily reliant on the wave's existence at a single point of failure (the hosting server): if that one point becomes unreliable, all participants are hosed. Neither of these problems exist with email (or NNTP). -- \ “Well, my brother says Hello. So, hooray for speech therapy.” | `\ —Emo Philips | _o__) | Ben Finney
