Would it be possible to put Wave into Eclipse?
It would then be the greatest IDE I think,

No more SVN and Team.. thank god!

Forget Eclipse--I'm sure many of us have already thought of Wave as a
phenomenal platform for a full-fledged IDE in itself. Certain tasks
seem tailor-made to Wave: for instance, autocomplete could easily be a
robot (think Spelly with a different data source). And Playback is
perfect for source control--imagine being able to play through the
revision history of a source file to see exactly where something was
added (particularly if they manage to get the section-by-section
playback working, as they alluded to in the demo). I can't wait to get
working on that. Anyone else?

Indeed, I also thought about it as a full-fledged IDE. However IDEs
would still be nice as rich clients to Wave servers, you don't need to
delegate, lets say, real-time compiling errors to the cloud if your
machine is faster.

I do foresee real-time coding done in wave, code modularization
becoming natural as not to break others codes, not only text but
image, video, any media type becoming the embed documentation to the
file, buildbots, SCM bots, testing bots, internal corporate twitting
to notify other developers of changes, blogging as documentation, the
autocomplete code as you said, with grammar correction, and
contextualization, so as to work with domains. That last would be
useful to create and use Ubiquitous Language in the project.

The possibiliies are endless.

I can't really see Wave becoming an all-in-one IDE, however, if
integrated with Visual Studio, or Eclipse, I could easily see it
becoming a strong contender.

I think once the specification is finished a site such as google code,
or github would be well suited for at least a beta launch to see if
it's feasible.

FYI, Dion Almaer from Bespin (collaborative canvas-based code editor)
has expressed interested in the concept of a Wave client as an IDE:

If someone will try to implement this great crazy IDE in wave idea
count me in ;) It coud be really great for pair programming etc.

I've created google code project on http://code.google.com/p/wavid/ so
feel free to join and/or share ideas :)

Thanks, Vladimir. I'm glad one of us got off his ass and did something about this ;)

The possibilities with assembly code are endless, too... ;-)

A lot depends on the ability to leverage the Wave (and its subordinate
wavelets) for versioning/delta handling, and of course on the richness
of a set of IDE-specific Gadgets...
