+ <p>Any (open source) project exists solely because a community wants to support
+it. The Wicket community consists of the users and developers. There are many
+who want to share their experiences with Wicket and do so on the mailing
+lists , on several online media portals (for example The ServerSide and
+JavaLobby ), and on their blogs.</p>

+ <h1>Wicket Buzz</h1>
+ <p>Wicket has appeared in the press in a variety of industry trade magazines,
+including Network World, ComputerWorld, IT World and Information Week.
+Presentations on Wicket have been delivered by Wicket team members at JavaOne
+in San Francisco, Javapolis and TheServerSide Java Symposium in Europe. The
+following are quotes from reviewers and users of Wicket:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>After working with JSF for almost a year, trying Wicket was like that
+movie scene where the clouds part and this big ray of light hits you
+in the face. I just had this feeling while JSF’ing that certain things
+were harder than they needed to be. Well, I was right, and the Wicket
+people figured it out.</p>
+
+ <p><a href="http://bigheadco.blogspot.com/2007/03/groovy-wicket.html">Kevin Galligan</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>Wicket (currently undergoing incubation with Apache) is a good
+example of a web framework which throws caution to the wind, and has
+absolutely no XML needed. We here at Mystic have a lot of love for
+Wicket and are actively developing several projects with it currently.</p>
+
+ <p><a href="http://www.mysticcoders.com/blog/2007/03/13/the-rise-of-the-xml-backlash/">Mystic Coders</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>Writing a Wicket app is rather more like writing an event-based
+desktop application than a web application.</p>
+
+ <p><a href="http://www.lshift.net/blog/2006/07/06/wicket">LShift</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>“Wickedly Cool” - I actually managed to whip together a Wicket
+Application in a few days. It is entertaining to work with, adding
+shiny stuff is really easy while you can develop Java code and keep
+those last bits of hair you have saved for ripping out in a CSS
+nightmare that you hopefully after finding Wicket will not have to
+deal with. So I’d go out on a limb and say that Wicket == Rogaine for
+developers.</p>
+
+ <p><a href="http://blogs.opennms.org/joed/?p=3">Joed</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>“So is Wicket the one true MVC framework that a lot of us have been
+hunting for? At the moment, I tend to think so. […] If you like Java
+you will really like Wicket.”</p>
+
+ <p><a href="http://ptrthomas.wordpress.com/2007/03/02/wicket-impressions-moving-from-spring-mvc-webflow/">Peter Thomas</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>“I think its an awesome way to deal with this whole web UI framework
+mess. I am happy to see someone take a simple and clean approach to
+the whole problem, and come up with a transparent POJO solution. I
+like the direction the framework is going… Wicket is clean, simple
+and elegant.”</p>
+
+ <p>Comment on TheServerSide.com</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>“Last week I wrote an article about Wicket and I spent some time
+discovering and taming it. And I have to confess this: I love it. …
+snip … Wicket is not a framework, it’s a candy bar. And everybody
+loves candy bars…”</p>
+
+ <p>Comment made by Romain Guy</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>The issue that impressed me in the Wicket model is that “Wicket does
+not mix markup with Java code and adds no special syntax to your
+markup files.” You reference Wicket identities as HTML attributes
+and define component properties in Java, which allows designers and
+programmers to work independently (within the obvious constraint of
+having common goals). There is no need for special tools.</p>
+
+ <p>From a Network World editorial entitled “Nothing Sticky about Wicket”</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>In a recent blog post I asked for feedback on what Web frameworks
+folks are using. Well, I got quite a surprise: Wicket was the most
+often recommended framework in reader emails!</p>
+
+ <p>From an About.com article entitled And the Winner is…Wicket</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>“I have used Wicket since last Fall for personal projects. I have 3
+kids and a wife so my free-time is very limited. Given that, I had to
+be very picky about which framework I chose. I’ve been very impressed
+with how little hassle it has been to start creating powerful,
+reusable components and pages with Wicket even under rather severe
+time constraints.”</p>
+
+ <p>Comment on TheServerSide.com</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>”…after using web MVC frameworks for a couple of years, building
+ever more complex web applications, I moved to component based
+frameworks. Of these, I think Wicket is by far the best…”</p>
+
+ <p>Comment on Manageability.org</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>”… Talk about a mind blowing experience, it literally took me ten
+minutes to have a sample application up and running! The Wicket API is
+very Swing like, which was a welcome change for me, and allowed for a
+very familiar development experience. There is even an extension that
+allows for direct use of a Swing TreeModel. There are so many things
+that I like about this framework …”</p>
+
+ <p>From a blog item by the Code Poet</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>“Wicket has a learning flat.”</p>
+
+ <p>Al Maw</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>JSF is Cool and young but Wicket is younger and even cooler. Have
+you tried wicket?. I am also building a large CRUD application for
+Job Exchange System in my country using Wicket + JPA + Stateless
+EJB3 + Glassfish (the latest promoted build of glassfish) and we are
+currently in testing phase and I am not having any serious headaches
+as things seems to be under control. All our forms are Ajax. We have
+several concurrent accesses and system is stable. I believe greatly in
+the Wicket Project especially for CRUD cases.</p>
+
+ <p><a href="http://www.javalobby.org/java/forums/t90719.html#92132195">Dabar Aladejebi</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>“focuses the development efforts in the right place, inside plain Java
+code” !! This was the winning ticket for me. The framework is truly
+amazing. I used ever dang framework in the book and can say that I’m
+most impressed with this one.</p>

+ <h1>Features</h1>
+ <h2 id="pojo-component-model">POJO Component Model</h2>
+
+<p>Pages and Components in Wicket are real Java objects that support
+encapsulation, inheritance and events.</p>
+
+<h2 id="ease-of-development">Ease of Development</h2>
+
+<p>Because Wicket is Java and HTML, you can leverage what you know about Java or
+your favorite HTML editor to write Wicket applications.</p>
+
+<h2 id="separation-of-concerns">Separation of Concerns</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket does not mix markup with Java code and adds no special syntax to your
+markup files. The worlds of HTML and Java are parallel and associated only by
+Wicket ids, which are attributes in HTML and Component properties in Java.
+Since Wicket HTML is just HTML and Wicket Java is just Java, coders and
+designers can work independently to a large degree and without relying on any
+special tools.</p>
+
+<h2 id="secure">Secure</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket is secure by default. URLs do not expose sensitive information and all
+component paths are session-relative. Explicit steps must be taken to share
+information between sessions. Furthermore URL encryption allows highly secure web sites.</p>
+
+<h2 id="transparent-scalable-clustering-support">Transparent, Scalable Clustering Support</h2>
+
+<p>All Wicket applications will work on a cluster automatically and without
+additional work. Once bottlenecks are understood, Wicket enables tuning of
+page state replication. The next version of Wicket will support client-side
+models for zero-state scalability.</p>
+
+<h2 id="transparent-back-button-support">Transparent Back Button Support</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket supports configurable page version management. When users submit a
+form or follow a link from a page they accessed with the back button in their
+browser, Wicket is able to revert the page object to the state it was in when
+the page was originally rendered. This means you can write web applications
+that support the back button with very little work.</p>
+
+<h2 id="multi-tab-and-multi-window-support">Multi-tab and multi-window support</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket provides an easy way to write application that supports multi-window
+and multi-tab usage allowing developer to react properly when users open new
+browser window or tab</p>
+
+<h2 id="reusable-components">Reusable Components</h2>
+
+<p>Reusable components in Wicket are particularly easy to create. Not only can
+you extend existing components with the Java extends keyword, but you can
+also create Panel components which associate a group of components as a
+reusable unit.</p>
+
+<h2 id="simple-flexible-localizable-form-validation">Simple, Flexible, Localizable Form Validation</h2>
+
+<p>It is trivial to write and use validators in Wicket. It is also quite easy to
+customize and localize the display and content of validation error messages.</p>
+
+<h2 id="typesafe-sessions">Typesafe Sessions</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket eliminates the need to manage HttpSession attributes by hand. Page and
+component objects are transparently stored in the session and your
+application can create a custom session subclass with typesafe properties as
+well. All objects stored in the session can automatically participate in
+clustering replication.</p>
+
+<h2 id="factory-customizable">Factory Customizable</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket is very extensible. Most operations are customizable through factories
+or factory methods.</p>
+
+<h2 id="detachable-models">Detachable Models</h2>
+
+<p>Model objects in Wicket can be very lightweight in terms of memory and
+network use in a cluster. When a model is used, it can “attach”, populating
+itself with information from persistent storage. When the model is no longer
+in use, transient information can be reset, reducing the size of the object.</p>
+
+<h2 id="border-components">Border Components</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket Border components enable the decoration of pages in a reusable
+fashion. This is especially useful for inheritance of common navigational
+structures or layout.</p>
+
+<h2 id="support-for-all-basic-html-features">Support for All Basic HTML Features</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket supports image tags, links, forms and everything else that you’re used
+to using in your web application development.</p>
+
+<h2 id="programmatic-manipulation-of-attributes">Programmatic Manipulation of Attributes</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket Components can programmatically change any HTML tag attribute.</p>
+
+<h2 id="automatic-conversions">Automatic Conversions</h2>
+
+<p>Once a Form validates, the model can be updated using Wicket converters. Most
+ordinary conversions are built-in and it is easy to write new converters.</p>
+
+<h2 id="dynamic-images">Dynamic Images</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket makes image use, sharing and generation very easy. Dynamic images can
+be created by simply implementing a paint method.</p>
+
+<h2 id="pageable-listview">Pageable ListView</h2>
+
+<p>ListViews in Wicket are extremely powerful. You can nest any kind of
+component in a ListView row, even other ListViews. PageableListView supports
+navigation links for large lists.</p>
+
+<h2 id="tree-component">Tree Component</h2>
+
+<p>Out of the box tree component for navigating and selecting nodes.</p>
+
+<h2 id="localization">Localization</h2>
+
+<p>HTML pages, images and resource strings can all be localized.</p>
+
+<h2 id="examples">Examples</h2>
+
+<p>Wicket has numerous examples showcasing all of the above features.</p>

+
+<p>If you are looking to do web application programming in Java, you have a very
+large number of choices these days. In fact, there are so many web
+application frameworks now that it has become somewhat of a joke. One blog
+site on the Internet poses the question: How many Java web frameworks can you
+name? The answer they show looks like this:</p>

+<h2 id="why-reinvent-the-wheel">Why “Reinvent the Wheel”?</h2>
+
+<p>In light of this, you may be wondering “What good is another web application
+framework?” Indeed. Why “re-invent the wheel?” One snappy comeback to that
+old saw is: because this time we could make it rounder!</p>
+
+<p>But it was not simply a desire for higher quality that drove the creation of
+Wicket. Even with so many options, there really is no web toolkit which fills
+exactly the niche that Wicket fills. In fact, Wicket is quite unlike each of
+the frameworks above.</p>
+
+<p>Wicket’s closest cousins are probably Tapestry and Echo, but even there the
+likeness is very shallow. Like Tapestry, Wicket uses a special HTML attribute
+to denote components, enabling easy editing with ordinary HTML editors. Like
+Echo, Wicket has a first-class component model. But Wicket applications are
+not like applications written in either Tapestry or Echo, because in Wicket
+you get the best of both worlds. You get the benefits of a first-class
+component model and a non-intrusive approach to HTML. In many situations,
+this combination may prove to be a significant development advantage.</p>
+
+<p>To understand why Wicket is so different, it may help to understand the
+motivations that created it.</p>
+
+<h2 id="motivations">Motivations</h2>
+
+<h3 id="most-existing-web-frameworks-provide-weak-to-non-existent-support-in-managing-server-side-state">Most existing web frameworks provide weak to non-existent support in managing server-side state</h3>
+
+<p>This normally means lots of ad-hoc code in web applications dealing with the
+gory mechanics of state management. While Wicket will not allow you to stop
+thinking about server state, it goes a long ways towards making it easy and
+often transparent to manage that state.</p>
+
+<p>In Wicket, all server side state is automatically managed. You will never
+directly use an HttpSession object or similar wrapper to store state.
+Instead, state is associated with components. Each server-side page component
+holds a nested hierarchy of stateful components, where each component’s model
+is, in the end, a POJO (Plain Old Java Object). Wicket maintains a map of
+these pages in each user’s session. One purpose of this page map (and the
+component hierarchy on each page) is to allow the framework to hide all
+details of how your components and models are accessed. You deal with simple,
+familiar Java objects and Wicket deals with things like URLs, session ids and
+GET/POST requests.</p>
+
+<p>You will also find that this well-structured server state makes it very easy
+to deal with the dreaded “back button problem”. In fact, Wicket has a generic
+and robust solution which can identify and expire browser-cached pages that
+have become stale due to structural changes to the model of a component on
+the page.</p>
+
+<p>Finally, Wicket has been designed to work with POJO persistence frameworks
+such as JDO or Hibernate. This can make database driven web applications
+quite easy to write.</p>
+
+<p>For many applications, it will be worth trading off the increased server load
+of extra server-side state for decreased development costs, lower maintenance
+costs, quicker time-to-market and generally higher quality software. The
+basic observation here is that software is expensive and complex while
+servers from companies like E-machines and Dell are relatively dirt cheap.</p>
+
+<p>In terms of efficiency versus productivity, perhaps Wicket is to JSP as Java
+is to C. You can accomplish anything in Wicket in JSP. You may even do it
+more efficiently in terms of memory or processor consumption. But it may take
+you weeks or months longer to develop your application. And in the end, since
+state management in JSP is ad-hoc, you are likely find security problems and
+bugs popping up everywhere. Most of the other frameworks above will do only a
+little more to help you.</p>
+
+<h3 id="most-existing-frameworks-require-special-html-code">Most existing frameworks require special HTML code</h3>
+
+<p>JSP is by far the worst offender, allowing the embedding of Java code
+directly in web pages, but to some degree almost all of the frameworks from
+the list (except Tapestry) above introduce some kind of special syntax to
+your HTML code.</p>
+
+<p>Special syntax is highly undesirable because it changes the nature of HTML
+from the kind of pure-and-simple HTML markup that web designers are familiar
+with, to some kind of special HTML. This special HTML can be more difficult
+to preview, edit and understand.</p>
+
+<p>Wicket does not introduce any special syntax to HTML. Instead, it extends
+HTML in a standards-compliant way via a Wicket namespace that is fully
+compliant with the XHTML standard. This means that you can use Macromedia
+Dreamweaver, Microsoft Front Page, Word, Adobe Go Live, or any other existing
+HTML editor to work on your web pages and Wicket components. To accomplish
+this, Wicket consistently uses a single id attribute in the Wicket namespace
+(“wicket:id”) to mark HTML tags that should receive special treatment by the
+toolkit. If you prefer not to render Wicket namespaced tags and attributes to
+your end-users, Wicket has a simple setting to strip them all out, resulting
+in ordinary, standards-compliant HTML.</p>
+
+<p>No “special sauce” in your HTML means designers can mock up pages that you
+can use directly in development. Adding Java components to the HTML is as
+simple as setting the component name attribute. And you can then give the
+HTML back to your web designers knowing that they can change it with
+confidence.</p>
+
+<p>Wicket, more than any other framework gives you a separation of concerns. Web
+designers can work on the HTML with very little knowledge of the application
+code (they cannot remove the component name tags and they cannot arbitrarily
+change the nesting of components, but anything else goes). Likewise, coders
+can work on the Java components that attach to the HTML without concerning
+themselves with what a given page looks like. By not stepping on each other’s
+toes, everyone can get more work done.</p>
+
+<h3 id="existing-frameworks-are-not-easy">Existing frameworks are not easy</h3>
+
+<p>Most of the existing toolkits have poorly defined or non-existent object
+models. In some cases, the model is defined using special XML syntaxes. The
+syntaxes may be so cumbersome that special tools are required to manipulate
+all the configuration information. Since these toolkits are not simple Java
+libraries you may or may not be able to use your favorite IDE tools such as
+editors, debuggers and compilers.</p>
+
+<p>Wicket is all about simplicity. There are no configuration files to learn in
+Wicket. Wicket is a simple class library with a consistent approach to
+component structure. In Wicket, your web applications will more closely
+resemble a Swing application than a JSP application. If you know Java (and
+especially if you know Swing), you already know a lot about Wicket.</p>
+
+<h3 id="existing-frameworks-inhibit-reusability">Existing frameworks inhibit reusability</h3>
+
+<p>Tapestry and JSF at least have component models that allow reuse, but you are
+likely to find that it is not particularly trivial to do, at least when
+compared with Wicket. Wicket has been explicitly designed to make it very,
+very easy to create reusable components. It’s surprisingly simple to extend
+existing components and to make compound components such as a SignInPanel or
+AddressForm. It is also relatively easy to create components that exploit new
+features of browsers. Components in Wicket can be packaged up in JAR files
+and reused by simply dropping them in your lib folder - no configuration
+necessary!</p>
+
+<h3 id="web-programming-should-be-fun">Web programming should be fun!</h3>
+
+<p>This is my most personal goal for writing Wicket . None of the existing
+frameworks are appealing to me in terms of intuitiveness, quickness, ease of
+development, etc. It is my hope that Wicket represents a significant step in
+the direction of making web applications easy and fun to write.</p>
+
+<h2 id="goals">Goals</h2>
+
+<p>Coming from these motivations, the following goals for Wicket emerged:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>EASY (SIMPLE / CONSISTENT / OBVIOUS)
+ <ul>
+ <li>POJO-centric</li>
+ <li>All code written in Java ala Swing</li>

+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>REUSABLE
+ <ul>
+ <li>Components written in Wicket should be fully reusable</li>
+ <li>Reusable components should be easily distributed in ordinary JAR files</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>

+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>SAFE
+ <ul>
+ <li>Code is secure by default</li>
+ <li>Only explicitly bookmarkable links can expose state in the page or URL</li>
+ <li>All logic in Java with maximum type safety</li>
+ <li>Easy to integrate with Java security</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>EFFICIENT / SCALABLE
+ <ul>
+ <li>Efficient and lightweight, but not at the expense of other goals</li>
+ <li>Clustering through sticky sessions preferred</li>
+ <li>Clustering via session replication is easy to accomplish and easy to tune by working with detachable models.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>COMPLETE</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The Wicket team is committed to deliver a feature complete, ready-to-use
+framework for developing Java web applications. The core framework was
+written and contributed by the author of this introduction, Jonathan
+Locke. The current team consists of a group of experienced programmers,
+some of which were active on some of the other frameworks stated above,
+and all of which have extensive experience building large scale Java web
+applications. We eat our own dogfood, and will thus work on Wicket from a
+framework user’s perspective.</li>

+ <h1>The Wicket Vision</h1>
+ <p>Designing and implementing any framework for use in the real world inevitably
+involves compromises and some degree of complexity, and Wicket is no
+exception. However, I believe you will find that Wicket is quite compact,
+focused and powerful as a framework. If Wicket has these characteristics, it
+is because it was designed to solve one very specific problem well:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+ <p>enabling component-oriented, programmatic manipulation of markup</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>Wicket does this and very little else, and that is a good thing.</p>
+
+<p>I once heard Josh Bloch talk about the power to weight ratio of an API. The
+highest compliment anyone could make of Wicket would be to suggest that
+Wicket has a lot of power and not much conceptual surface area.</p>
+
+<p>In art, negative space is the part that’s not the subject. In music, negative
+space is the rest. In software, negative space is all the code that you
+managed to avoid writing. In all three disciplines, it’s what separates what
+is truly excellent from what is merely good.</p>
+
+<p>Following this metaphor, if Wicket is our foreground object, it is defined in
+a negative sense by all the things that it is not (by the background).</p>
+
+<p>In other words, ideally, Wicket is a web UI framework that delegates as many
+areas of responsibility as possible to other, more focused tools and
+techniques. It recognizes that Hibernate is good at persistence; that Spring is
+good at DI; that Java properties files are good for
+localization; that sub-classing is good for creating component types; that
+Dreamweaver is good at doing HTML layout; that Beans are good for structuring
+properties; and so on.</p>
+
+<p>The more ways that Wicket can find to offload responsibilities (both now and
+in the future), the less it will be. And thus, the more it will be.</p>
+
+<p>The difficulty moving forward with Wicket will be balancing all the
+day-to-day needs people are going to be bringing up with this overall vision
+of minimalism. There ultimately will be compromises, and the “trick” to
+making the right compromises is simply to agonize over all the options for a
+long time and then to only make the compromises that everyone agrees are
+really essential to what Wicket needs to be and do.</p>
+
+<p>A big part of this process of agonizing is to act like doctors and “first, do
+no harm”. If some issue isn’t sitting well with everyone yet, there’s
+probably a reason for that. So, maybe the near-term solution is to simply do
+nothing and let people use the existing functionality until the limits to
+that approach (as well as competing ideas) are better understood.</p>
+
+<p>It’s easy to add features. It’s often impossible to change or remove them.</p>
+
+<p>Given this, the Wicket approach to the overall problem of evolving while
+keeping a high power to weight ratio will be partitioning off all
+controversial new ideas in a “wicket-stuff” package until they are broadly
+accepted. This way people can experiment and code away and check in lots of
+stuff without affecting the main codebase with untested ideas. Then, when
+ideas pan out to everyone’s satisfaction, the leads of the
+project will move them into the core.</p>

+ <h1>Download Wicket releases</h1>
+ <p>Apache Wicket 6.19.0 is the current stable release.
+Most users get Apache Wicket using <a href="#maven">Apache Maven’s dependency
+management</a>, which incidentally is the most convenient way of
+obtaining the latest and greatest Wicket.</p>
+
+<h2 id="download">Download</h2>
+
+<p>New projects should use <a href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/6.19.0">Wicket 6.19.0</a> as their base.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><strong>Latest stable release</strong>: <a href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/6.19.0">6.19.0</a></li>
+ <li><strong>Latest 6.x release</strong>: <a href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/6.19.0">6.19.0</a></li>
+ <li><strong>Latest 1.5.x release</strong>: <a href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/1.5.13">1.5.13</a></li>
+ <li><strong>Latest 1.4.x release</strong> (security updates only): <a href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/1.4.23">1.4.23</a></li>
+ <li><strong>Archived releases</strong>: <a href="http://archive.apache.org/dist/wicket">http://archive.apache.org/dist/wicket</a></li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>We recommend you <a href="quickstart.html">start</a> with our latest stable release. </p>
+
+<h3 id="developer-releases">Developer releases</h3>
+
+<p>If you like to live on the cutting edge and help development of Wicket
+further along, you can try out the development milestone releases:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Latest <strong>development milestone</strong> release for 7.x:
+<a href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/7.0.0-M5">7.0.0-M5</a></li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>This release is not fit for production use yet: it is only intended for
+developers of Wicket, or for people trying out our development
+versions. API changes will occur between releases.</p>
+
+<h3 id="requirements">Requirements</h3>
+
+<h4 id="java-version">Java version</h4>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Apache Wicket 7.x requires JDK 7.0 or newer</li>
+ <li>Apache Wicket 6.x requires JDK 6.0 or newer</li>
+ <li>Apache Wicket 1.5.x requires JDK 1.5 or newer</li>
+ <li>Apache Wicket 1.4.x requires JDK 1.5 or newer</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h4 id="mixing-wicket-versions">Mixing Wicket versions</h4>
+
+<p>You cannot mix different Wicket versions in your project. You should
+always use the artifacts from a particular release train.</p>
+
+<p>For example it is <strong>NOT</strong> possible to use Wicket Extensions 1.5 in a
+Wicket 6 project. The same goes for 3rd party libraries: make sure you
+always use a compatible version of your 3rd party library.</p>
+
+<h4 id="logging">Logging</h4>
+
+<p>You cannot use Wicket without adding an SLF4J logging implementation to
+your classpath. Most people use
+<a href="http://logging.apache.org/log4j">log4j</a>.</p>
+
+<p>If you do, just include <strong>slf4j-log4j12.jar</strong> on your classpath to get
+Wicket to use log4j too. If you want to use commons-logging or JDK14
+logging or something else, please see the <a href="http://www.slf4j.org/faq.html">SLF4J
+site</a> for more information.</p>
+
+<h2 id="migrating-from-earlier-versions">Migrating from earlier versions</h2>
+
+<p>If you are migrating an existing application from earlier versions of
+Wicket you may find our migration guides invaluable:</p>
