I haven't used Etherpad, but isn't Google Wave going to capture the essential feature of Etherpad (N-way realtime collaboration) while being federated, backed by Google, and open source to boot?
I know that there is still room to be a niche player in a market even after someone dominates a space, but I am curious to hear if the AppJet folks have any more ambitious plans for dealing with this.

- trickjarrett 17y agoEtherpad could, in theory, write their app as an app for Google Wave, but Google Wave itself isn't going to provide the Etherpad experience.
