Thanks for all responses.
It's very encouraging to get immediate replies - it makes me believe that
wicket is alive and has strong community, which is obviously a good thing.
Igor, your phonebook app is exactly what I've been looking for, thanks !

You're pretty much stuck convincing yourself that Wicket works well with
persistence, at least for now. (You'll see that it does, though.) The
examples in wicket-stuff do things in several different ways, and many
of them stop short of actually plugging into a database but instead
simulate one.
