The reference guide online is pretty up to date, but hasn't been professionally
edited so can be a bit rough to read. You have no idea what a professional
editor does to a text to make it readable.
Wicket in Action is getting old in the tooth, but many concepts would still be
valid, although the code examples won't work.
The biggest change is the addition of generics to Wicket since 1.3.
Other caveats:
- use onConfigure() & setVisibilityAllowed(...) rather than overriding
isVisible()
- mounting for bookmarkable pages has been reworked
- resources (header items, etc) has been reworked
and probably much more. The details might be off, but if you read it for
conceptual explanations (high overview) I think Wicket in Action still works.
