Hi, I'll create a branch wicket-7.x for Wicket 7.x and change the settings in master's pom.xml to use Java 8.
There are four fixed tickets for 1.5.x, so I'll release 1.5.14 in the coming days and then I suggest to drop support for 1.4.x and fix only security related bugs in 1.5.x. 6.x and 7.x will receive bug fixes and in master will be the active development. New features which could be in implemented with Java 7.x will be downported. Martin Grigorov Wicket Training and Consulting https://twitter.com/mtgrigorov
