The shared state size limit is 2048 bytes. As the realtime gadget api
moves towards a unified api that works across Wave, Orkut, iGoogle
etc, it seems like this could become a limiting factor for one to
*many* communication. It's a perfect size for a 1-to-1 shared state
for games like chess. But for Wave you could have 100+ people on a
Wave, all sharing the same state. And the same could be true of a game
on a Canvas page in OpenSocial gadgets. Does Wave have an upper limit
for the shared state size? And would the realtime api limit be
flexible based on the view that it's used in? For example an
OpenSocial Canvas page might have an increased limit?

Thanks
