The Apache Wicket team is proud to announce the availability of the first maintenance release: Apache Wicket 1.3.1.

A lot of bugs have been squashed and improvements implemented. The most notable improvement is the addition out-of-the-box, transparent clustering support.

1.3 has personally been extremely stable and a ton of features that if you are still using 1.2 you should bite the bullet and jump.

 The Apache Wicket team is starting off 2008 with a bang.  They just officially released version 1.3!  This is great to see since I have been personally using 1.3 codes since last year and have had very little stability issues related to the framework.  Just goes to show how well Wicket is built/designed and the team behind it!

If you don’t know what Wicket is, then you must not have talked to me, since it is the only Java web framework I will talk about anymore!

Be come a Wicket fanatic and see how Java web development should have been done for years.

Great work Wicket team… I look forward to what 1.4 brings and the migration to Java 5 and generics…. Yes!

I created a Wicket based search that can be added to your iGoogle page.

Just click below and you are good to go. I picked the mailing lists, blogs and other misc sites that has great Wicket info and code.

Far from perfect, but better than having to check multiple sites.

Being quite the Wicket slut these days, I have to admit that a book about my favorite web  framework is exciting to see.  It reinforces what I already know, Wicket rocks!

The authors are two of the projects very active committers.

Martijn Dashorst and Eelco Hillenius

I have been on the Manning MEAP program for it and the book is looking very good.  It will be great to point newbs at on what Wicket it can do.

I know personally I have created web pages quicker, with more function than ever before in a java framework.  In comparison to my days back in Struts (oh the pain), once you get your head around Wicket, it is just sweet.

It truly makes web development in Java fun again.

Long live Wicket.

I have seen the gambit of frameworks, technologies, features, whatever.

Well I have to say, I have seen the future of Java Web development and it is called Wicket.

If you do any Java web development, you MUST investigate Wicket.

I will never write another JSP page as long as I do Java web development.
