I migrated an application from SpringMVC/Freemarker (no JSP) to Wicket
over a period of several weeks. I basically did it as Igor suggested, a
page[flow] at a time; some URLs went to the old pages, some to the new.

The biggest issue I can recall is with feedback panels. If we raised a
feedback message (e.g. Session.get().info("Record saved.")) then
redirected to a non-Wicket page, the user wouldn't see the message until
they later hit a Wicket page. I'm sure we could have worked something up
to display Wicket feedback messages from non-Wicket pages but we
completed the migration before it became much of an issue.
