I hate to say it, but I'll do it anyway: It is a wiki so if you think something is missing/incomplete/incorrect/needs restructuring... log on and make it better! Not only will you benefit from the change, but the rest of the community will have a better life too!
As for the component descriptions, we are trying to coerse maven into generating a website similar to the one we had for 1.2, but now for 1.3. in the future it will become available here (nothing there to see at this moment): http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13 and the url structure would be something like: http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/index.html <- overview http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket <- wicket core http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket/dependencies.html http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket/index.html http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket/source-repository.html http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket/apidocs http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket-extensions http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket-extensions/index.html http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket-extensions/dependencies.html http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket-extensions/source-repository.html http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket-extensions/apidocs http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket-datetime http://wicket.apache.org/wicket13/wicket-datetime/index.html etc. Martijn On 9/9/07, Johan Maasing <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > A maven archetype is really helpful and the quickstart guide is good > but for me personally I would rather see the documentation > restructured a bit.
