I am convinced (and know from working with maven 1) that not having
transitive dependencies can be a big miss. Fortunately however, we
kept the number of dependencies in Wicket down to a bare minimum
(though people might argue that we could even replace logging with JDK
logging), so the dependencies for the Wicket base projects via get
should be doable.
