Hoi,
At the New York meeting a demonstration was given of an interface between
Wave and MediaWiki. TheDevilOnLine was at the Google hackaton in Cupertino
prior to this and worked with Google engineers to define the issues that are
open to make such a thing a reality. It is likely that by October the
majority if not all of the issues identified will be solved.
Yep, he was showing off some of that when we bumped into him at OSCON.
Very cool, though it's unclear how much direct application it'll have or
whether the wysiwig end of things is going to just hit the same walls a
past efforts (which is why we've concentrated for now on cleaning up the
front-end and paving the way for a potential future switch away from the
markup system we've got, rather than attempting to shoehorn a wysiwyg
translator on for now).
Definitely stay in the loop with him if you're playing with Wave. :)
