   Awesome, great to see this made it in! Happy to discuss whenever you need 
help for further migration steps. :)

> The [Migration to Wicket 
> 10.0|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WICKET/Migration+to+Wicket+10.0]
>  guide contains a number of breaking changes, that users will have to adopt. 
> Examples include merging `wicket-http2` into `wicket-core`, and the 
> associated package change of `PushHeaderItem` to 
> `org.apache.wicket.markup.head.http2`. And while understandably necessary, 
> these nonetheless can be a hurdle for users to adopt.
> To help users adopt Wicket 10 and the associated upgrade to Java 17 and 
> Servlet 5+ I propose to add a module containing [OpenRewrite migration 
> recipes|https://docs.openrewrite.org/]. For those unfamiliar: OpenRewrite 
> allows you to define migration steps either through Yaml or with Java 
> visitors, and compose these steps to achieve larger migrations. Such 
> migrations have been [applied to Wicket 
> before,|https://github.com/apache/wicket/pull/546] but they can also be 
> defined and distributed for Apache Wicket users.
> As a recent example, migration recipes have been [added to Axon 
> Framework|https://developer.axoniq.io/w/upgrading-to-axon-framework-4.7-automated].
>  In practice that comes down to the following code changes, which also 
> include instructions on their use: 
> [https://github.com/AxonFramework/AxonFramework/pull/2597/files]
> Wicket 10 migration recipes can include a number of existing recipes that 
> help modernize applications:
>  # [Use lambdas where 
> possible|https://docs.openrewrite.org/reference/recipes/java/cleanup/uselambdaforfunctionalinterface]
>  # [Migrate to Jakarta EE 
> 9|https://docs.openrewrite.org/reference/recipes/java/migrate/jakarta/javaxmigrationtojakarta]
>  # [Migrate to Java 
> 17|https://docs.openrewrite.org/reference/recipes/java/migrate/upgradetojava17]
> The Wicket 10 specific recipes can reuse common building blocks such as 
> ChangeType to adopt package name changes, and RemoveDependency to remove 
> `wicket-http2`.
> Technically this wouldn't have to be very difficult initially, even more so 
> when the goal is to assist a migration rather than to achieve a complete 
> migration. The Axon Framework migration can serve as a template, and I'm 
> happy to provide guidance.
> Would this be something worth adding to Apache Wicket?
