ha!

why is everybody so pro deployment mode as default?
When i was busy doing the changes in that area (adding the system property
and so on)
i asked and wanted to have deployment as default but back then i was
vetoed..

another thing. We need to check in jar files!! Please remember the osgi
folks!!!
But what sebastiaan in another thread proposed seems to work, i will
implement that the coming days

No, because when you're developing, you turn on the development
version, e.g. by providing a system arg when starting up or putting in
that web-xml parameter.

They should be used for development only. If you want to run your site
in development mode, that's fine, but let's just not make it a
default.

The quickstart thing: that's fine, I don't care what you do with that.
I'm talking about the fact that Wicket itself by default runs in
development mode, which is just a bad idea (like I've argued before).

Well, now people have problems when they actually deploy! I rather
have them look a bit harder when they develop.

Yes. If nothing is set explicitly, Wicket defaults to deployment mode.
And I don't care about what is done with the quickstart project. That
is probably used for just some testing and learning, so defaulting to
development sounds fine to me.
