[jira] Created: (WICKET-1375) wicket.sourceforge.net/wicket-quickstart is totally obsolete and too easily found in search engines

wicket.sourceforge.net/wicket-quickstart is totally obsolete and too easily found in search engines
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WICKET-1375
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-1375
             Project: Wicket
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: site
            Reporter: Kevin Murphy


The whole http://wicket.sourceforge.net/wicket-quickstart/ tree makes Wicket look like a dead or dying project.  If it hasn't been updated since 2006, I assume it should just be replaced with redirects to the current Quick Start page on the main Wicket site (http://wicket.apache.org/quickstart.html).  

As a Wicket newbie, I have encountered this dead content several times during Google searches.  It really needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.  How many people are finding this and get turned off?

[jira] Closed: (WICKET-1375) wicket.sourceforge.net/wicket-quickstart is totally obsolete and too easily found in search engines

Martijn Dashorst closed WICKET-1375.
------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

I've updated the sites with a warning on top.

These sites *WILL* stay alive for old users. If a newbie can't search using google and use his brain to figure out where to get the newest Wicket release, I don't want him as a user.
