Hey everyone,

I have been hacking on Wicket as a web framework. 
http://wicket.apache.org/

I bought the book titled
"Wicket in Action" but I had a tough time getting the examples going. I
succeeded at making the example code working and have them available.

Wicket is pretty cool. It takes you away from http request and puts you
in application land. On the html side, it's plain html with placeholders.
I haven't dug into it completely, but thus far, I have been impressed.
My eventual goal is to integrate with Hibernate for ORM and Spring for
security.
