Hm, looking forward to seeing if it's as misunderstood (under-estimated) as I think it is. I'll write this up as a full post later, but is it just me who imagines that Wave is sort of like Alan Kay's original vision for OOP - objects which "exist" across computers, respond to changes, etc.
Thank you. Between your comment, the REST post, and that object store OS, Daiken I believe, it just clicked what objects were supposed to be. Though I'll still need more practice before I really get it.
Feel free to post your understanding once it clicks, I still don't get it completely myself. REST definitely has something to do with Kay's objects. Wave does some neat things with diffs/merging REST doesn't, though.
