Atmosphere does this since its very early versions... I personally don't care because I don't use (Wicket-)Atmosphere. There are several technical things I don't like in Atmo.
Last time I tried to upgrade Wicket-Atmo from 2.1.8 to 2.2.x it stopped working for some reason. And I didn't have time to debug it. So it stays at 2.1.8. I'm sure Emond will upgrade it to the version with the setting to suppress "phone home" without any sweat :-) Martin Grigorov Wicket Training and Consulting https://twitter.com/mtgrigorov On Fri, Oct 3, 2014 at 1:45 PM, Martijn Dashorst <[email protected] > wrote: > My first reaction was to remove the module from our project, but that > would leave everybody currently using it stranded on the E.T.
