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.
