It's understandable that he gives a strong opinion to a direct attack on his framework. He's probably as ill informed about Wicket as we are on Tapestry 5 though. So what she should do is take a look at what he is doing and see whether we can learn something from it. Unlikely though as it'll still be the difference between an unmanaged framework (Wicket) and a managed/ declarative one (Tapestry). That, together with some of the other major differences, makes that we'll likely be improving our frameworks in very different directions.
