Hello Frank, I can't answer all the questions but... * I'm a 10+ year nearly Java only developer. I was initially very impressed with databinder but the only real support for databinder I could find is @: http://code.google.com/p/wicket-web-beans/ * I have 1.3.5 running in Eclipse (Ganymede) with Maven OK and I plan to upgrade to 1.3.6 as my new gig requires this framework. * Hibernate is a great ORM gadget but it is not 100% Java so PermGen space can be an issue. So, as an alternative you could investigate iBatis and I think Wicket also does well in the DAO arena. I'm only 100 pp into the WIA book so obviously you will need more folks chipping in with better experience.

I am new to Java, to Maven and to Wicket of course too. I have a background in web developing with Zope and Django (all implemented in Python) but am forced to use Java now. I know that the learning curve will be steep and I got some showstoppers already :) After reading much about many Java frameworks and some frustrating tests with JSF I've chosen Wicket because it fits my requirements best. I've done some tests with databinder which promoted Maven heavily, so I want to use Maven too. I'm still struggling with the whole setup - the following issues are still not clear to me: - Maven setup - Wicket dependency doesn't work for 1.3.5 nor for 1.3.6 although the website says so (data at the end of this message) Possibly another repository required? - integration with Eclipse - Maven goal or Eclipse plugin or both? - I want to use embedded Jetty also for production (running the application behind lighttpd). How to do deployment in an elegant way? There is only SSH access to my server. - Hibernate integration - does databinder help much or is it better to learn Hibernate directly? I saw that databinder always is somewhat behind the current versions, so that may be an issue. I hope these are not too stupid questions and someone will find the time to answer them.
