I don't have an answer to "was is successful". I guess that depends on your parameters for "success". Yes, there are some bugs. Yes, it is useful for me. For people who use wicket and osgi, as far as I can tell it's the best solution out there.
Personally, I am very heavily invested in pax-wicket. However, from the perspective of this project, I am a user, not a developer, so I don't have time to invest in maintaining it. Essentially, I would be totally screwed without it.... at least for the next year or so, and maybe a little longer. That being said, though, I do not insist that it remain "up and visible" as you describe below.
