The Wicket Team

- Apache Wicket

Apache Wicket is a component oriented Java web application framework.  
With proper mark-up/logic separation, a POJO data model, and a  
refreshing lack of XML, Apache Wicket makes developing web-apps simple  
and enjoyable again. Swap the boilerplate, complex debugging and  
brittle code for powerful, reusable components written with plain Java  
and HTML.

You can find out more about Apache Wicket on our website:

- This release
The Apache Wicket team is proud to announce the availability of the  
third milestone release of our first java 1.5 Wicket version: Apache  
Wicket 1.4-m3. This is the first release with java 1.5 as a minimum.  
Almost everything has been converted to java 1.5. If you find  
something missing, please help us and send a message to the dev@ or  
user@ list.
