More than a year ago, we announced that Google Wave would no longer be
developed as a separate product. At the time, we committed to
maintaining the site at least through to the end of 2010. Today, we
are sharing the specific dates for ending this maintenance period and
shutting down Wave. As of January 31, 2012, all waves will be
read-only, and the Wave service will be turned off on April 30, 2012.
You will be able to continue exporting individual waves using the
existing PDF export feature until the Google Wave service is turned
off. We encourage you to export any important data before April 30,
2012.
If you would like to continue using Wave, there are a number of open
source projects, including Apache Wave. There is also an open source
project called Walkaround that includes an experimental feature that
lets you import all your Waves from Google. This feature will also
work until the Wave service is turned off on April 30, 2012.
For more details, please see our help center.
Yours sincerely,
The Wave Team
