As always on this forum we have managed to come up with some really helpful information and ideas in double quick time! Thanks for all the input ... I will now merge everything in with my original thoughts and see what I can realistically expect to cover in 1 hour. I also hope this bag of ideas will be useful to others who want to see Wicket get the support it deserves and/or those who are trying to convince their PMs/teams that there really is a better way to develop web apps and how much sense it makes (in terms of $s, quality and job satisfaction, on top of all the technical stuff brought up in this thread).
Any more thoughts are obviously more than welcome, but either way, I hope to post about how it goes soon (probably not until next week as Al and I are running the http://jweekend.co.uk/dev/JW703/ weekend Wicket course on Saturday and Sunday and then we have to prepare for the our http://jweekend.co.uk/dev/LWUGReg/ London Wicket Users Group event on Tuesday evening where I hope to talk about Trees in Wicket). Thanks again for all the high quality feedback.
