I think it depends how Seam will be really decoupled from JSF.

I think it would be a nice option to Seam users to use Wicket as
presentation layer instead of JSF, but if so the integration should be a
Seam developers matter ..

What would be nice to have in Wicket from an integration with Seam is the
Pageflow mechanism.

I think this is one the most interesting Seam feature that is missing in the
Wicket framework.

I checked out seam from cvs today and browsed through the code a bit
(and also looked at JSR 299 for that matter).

Gavin states that Seam is now ready to be used in other frameworks.
Well... only if those other frameworks work with page flows, support
EL, manage state independenly from objects, etc. Stuff Wicket doesn't
need. But if that's all stripped, what's left? Really, it looks to me
that Seam (and JSR-299) are completely bound to JSF, if not
technically, than at least conceptually.

I think it is better to just stay focussed on what Wicket is good at.
We have excellent facilities for state management, model binding, etc,
and adding a framework in between will only make Wicket more heavy
weight. But please do speak up if you don't agree with what I think of
Seam + Wicket, and give some concrete examples of how such integration
would be an advantage.
