Apache Wicket 6.8.0 released

[Martijn Dashorst <da...@apache.org>]

The Apache Wicket PMC is proud to announce Apache Wicket 6.8.0!

This release marks the seventh minor release of Wicket 6. Starting
with Wicket 6 we use semantic versioning for the future development
of Wicket, and as such no API breaks are present in this release
compared to 6.0.0.

Using this release
------------------

With Apache Maven update your dependency to (and don't forget to
update any other dependencies on Wicket projects to the same version):

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.wicket</groupId>
    <artifactId>wicket-core</artifactId>
    <version>6.8.0</version>
</dependency>

Or download and build the distribution yourself, or use our
convenience binary package

Upgrading from earlier versions
