Known Issues with Google Wave Preview
| Name | Description | Ack'd | Fixed |
| Picture yes, name no. | If you setup a new picture for a contact, Wave will use your selection, but it will continue using whatever name or nickname the participant uses in his or her own Google or Wave Profile. (Go figure!) | | | | Requests nevers used. | Requests may come into play when other Wave servers become available. | | | | Privacy Policy. | The Privacy Policy depends on participants being able to remove themselves. (Known issue.) It also seems to be independent of moving a wave to Trash. | | | | Picture missing. | If you are adding a Wave participant directly to Google Contact, be sure to list the Google Account associated with his or her Wave account as the first email on the list. Likewise, if a contact's picture doesn't appear, be sure the Google/Wave account is the first listed. (Known issue.) | | | | Profile flash. | When the contact is first added, Wave will display the website and phone number (if any) from his or her Google Profile. Later those details may disappear if they are not included in the Google Contacts record. (Confusing, ain't it?) | | |
