Of course you can startup Tomcat from Eclipse just as well :)
I seem to remember that Jetty is vastly easier to configure from Java
source.
I tried this with Jetty 6. Hardly any documentation or complete examples
to be found. So I switched back to Jetty 4 for which I had an example
from an old wicket-quickstart.
Tomcat at least has a very decent and understandable embedded java
interface.

Still can't see why you can't do "local" debugging with Tomcat. From eclipse
you just start it as an application with main class

without any remoting...
I've no agenda about Tomcat. Was just curious about the preference. I seem
to remember that Jetty is vastly easier to configure from Java source.
Presumably it is also still much smaller.

theres a equallent to mvn jetty:run called mvn tomcat:run...
If devs decided to give up mvn jetty:run then we would loose support for
debuging with start.java ... As Matej mentions..

Is
that more that the core Wicket developers prefer Jetty or is there a
killer
advantage over the more common Tomcat?
[Reposting a paragraph of Igor's to start, in case it looks familiar!]
The advantages are that you can quickly get your app running using mvn
jetty:jetty command if you want. Even better, when developing you dont
need to package your app into a war and deploy it - which are big time
wasting steps when you have to do them every ten minutes - instead
simply launch the included Start.java and your app is up and running
in seconds and includes hotswap.
One thing I like about Jetty is that it's normally clear to see what's
mounted where, as the default '/' servlet will list them when running
'mvn jetty:run' (although that's not in our Start.java).
Of course, having said that, I need to say that I'm having good
results with Winstone, where Jetty was having issues (with the
non-Wicket connected part of a legacy web-app) - see
