Sure, there is nothing special about Ant and wicket is very easy to set up and the dependencies needed are kind of explained somewhere. But I keep seing requests for information from newbies (such as myself) answered with maven command lines or "look at the source". Perhaps there is need for a FAQ linked from the wicket home page. Yes I have seen the FAQ buried in the wiki but: "What is the meaning of life, the universe and everything?" isn't all that helpful.
