right. i didn't mean at all to imply that wicket isn't high quality enough for serious use, even enterprise use. i hope it is obvious that i think it is. and, as you point out, you can scale apps pretty darn far in wicket already. but there are enterprises and there are Enterprises. all i really meant below is that i would not yet try to build something with a /very/ high volume usage pattern on wicket 1.0. for example, i would not try to base a new amazon.com or yahoo.com type of service on wicket /1.0/. however, if you have a long development cycle anyway, it's likely that 1.1 will be done in a few months anyway, and i believe /that/ really should be sufficient for creating even a site as large as yahoo or amazon. for truly large problems like amazon.com, we're going to need some of these 1.1 features like zero-state. that's all i meant. i guess i probably should have said $1B not $1M... i've got that austin powers problem with money... ;-)

You're not? We do. Though the web application part is just a part of the whole, we're using Wicket for our 7 man year + project right now.
The fact that we don't have javascript support etc. build in yet, doesn't mean it is not useable. You can do Javascript, AJAX, whatever right now if you want to. It's just not yet totally integrated, which actually only means that you'll not be able to create high level reuseable components with JS/ AJAX/ etc.
I also think the clustering options are suited for production now. Might need a few tweaks here and there, but it's allready so much better than the Struts-like frameworks we're used to. And if you want to develop client-state pages, you can do that now (using bookmarkable pages). It's just that we're gonna make it even easier in 1.1.

if it helps any, i believe this is not going to be any /long term/ trouble. right now, i would not base a million dollar large-scale web app on wicket...
