Bug on Wicket Quick Start web page - negative impact on newcomers
-----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WICKET-1369
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-1369
             Project: Wicket
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: site
         Environment: Firefox 2.0.0.12 on Windows XP
            Reporter: Kevin Murphy
            Priority: Minor


The Maven command-line generation form gives a rather suboptimal impression to 
the newcomer.

1) The Version select widget does not allow the user to type in an arbitrary 
version number.  In fact, why is this even a menu at all?  Shouldn't it ust be 
a plain text box?

2) It would be much slicker if the GroupId and especially ArtifactId labels 
were more descriptive for those unfamiliar with Maven.  "ArtifactId" should 
certainly be "Project name".  GroupId should be something else, not sure what.  
"Package path?"

3) In the second paragraph, "Maven 2" should be a link to the Maven download 
page.
