What is this 'conversation' all about? It doesn't seem to be a known concept in any GUI guideline I know (e.g. Apple's Human Interface Guidelines). Neither does wikipedia list it under http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUI_widget.
This is what wikipedia is saying about Seam's conversation: 'The default Seam context is conversation which can span multiple pages and usually spans the whole business flow, from start to finish.' This seems to describe a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizard_(software) . IMHO 'conversation' is a buzzword invented for those who still think a web UI consists of a sequence of HTML pages only. Back in 2000 the same guys invented 'mvc-2' and told us that a UI can be built on actions only. Just my rant (worth 2 cents or less). Back to Wicket and wizards: For a wizard I'd suggest to use a single Wicket page, replacing components as you step through it. Note that Wicket extensions provide a wizard component, but you can easily roll your own implementation.
