Wicket 2.0 Release Update

[Zac Parsons <zp...@webassociates.com>]

Forgive me for asking a question that has been asked before but is there an
update on when Wicket 2.0 will be available? 

I saw several responses in the summer and fall of last year saying that a
release would be "in a few months" but nothing more recent then that. 

I'd like to recommend Wicket for our new project but we must have Java 5
support so I am eagerly awaiting news of it's progress.

Thanks.

Not really. Lots of stuff came in between. Imo the 2.0 is reasonably
stable and many of it's features got backported to 1.3, making both
1.3 and interesting enough alternative and giving the new features of
2.0 the change to get tested (there are at least a couple of
production systems written on 1.3).

You don't need Wicket 2.0 for Java 5 support, unless you care for
generified models. Personally, I think the parent change (provide a
parent in the constructor and the component is added to the tree
rather than calling add on the parent) is the greatest feature, but
certainly not something people can't do without.

We are *hoping* (not a promise) to get the first version of 1.3 out
this month still. 2.0's first beta might be done in february if 1.3
worked out well.
