I'm not a big fan of DTOs. I understand why folks use them, but until I figure out that I actually need them (for performance reasons), I actually stick with just sending back my entities from the database. For the most part, it works for me and I find it convenient to have everyone coding to the same "domain" objects. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
