Bernard commented on WICKET-6809:
---------------------------------

I can clearly understand your position. Who wants to deal with legacy code? But 
the reality is that I do not have a choice because my application depends on 
GlassFish and there is no GlassFish for version 9. Therefore, I am keen to hear 
what I can do to move forward.

I wish to also raise a general point. I started using Wicket before version 
1.4. At that time, the Wicket team had a very solid position that pages should 
throw the dreaded PageExpiredException based on some kind of principle that I 
disagreed with. That PageExpiredException, the difficulty to write stateless 
pages, and the difficulty to create clean URL mappings has made the project 
very unpopular and alienated many developers. 

Today, I can say that I was right because many of the problems are solved now, 
partly based on a number of issues including enhancements that I requested 
which blurred the line between stateful and stateless pages. Please look at
|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-5070
|Optionally execute Callback Behavior on Re-construction after Expiry|
|

Wicket has an inherent productivity advantage if used correctly. But this 
advantage is quickly lost with bugs like these.

At the time, many years back, that big project I was working on has suffered a 
lot under these bugs. I am reviewing these issues now and I can see how the 
time it took me to deal with these issues, the lost time, had a major impact on 
that project, too much of an impact actually.

I have that strange feeling that many developers have been turned away because 
a lot of fundamental features including re-deployment on an application server 
did not get enough attention. The fact is that there are no Wicket jobs out 
there today basically.
