Persistence with Hibernate annotations and Spring declarative
transactions (@Transactional) provide a great programming model.
Wicket on top of that, with Spring components injected via @SpringBean
works well, too, though so far Wicket doesn't really leverage Java 5.
One notable exceptions is the wicketstuff-annotations project, which
allows you to configure mounts with annotations.
You should look for existing components for image uploading and map
display, that will help getting started. Building your own forum
software doesn't sound like a good idea, all in all there is just way
too much stuff you'd have to reinvent. Not sure if there is anything
available for wicket for building a forum.

I plan to use Wicket first time for my next project. I will use Wicket +
Spring + Hibernate to build a web application.
I am familiar with Spring (mostly the pre-2.5 version) and Hibernate.
And I also worked with Swing before moved into the Java server side
development. I would like to hear any suggestions of most effective
approaches. I don't have a lot of time for this project, but would like
to get it up ASAP.
The first phase of the project will allow users post entries which involves
image uploading and map display. Online forum is another feature in my plan.
While
I am starting research/study on related materials, I would like to hear
suggestions/advices from others with related successful or unsuccessful
experience.
Thanks very much in advance.
