"But why choose an inferior technology just because of its adoption numbers?"
The pointy haired bosses that do this believe in their heart of hearts that if you choose the same technology everyone else is using that they can turn thinking developers for mindless drones. It has more to do with avoiding training costs and rational thought, and more to do with trying to turn software development into an assembly line process. Reality never fits this mold, but it doesn't stop the pointy haired boss from trying. In this respect they are eternal optimists. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, January 08, 2010 4:09 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Help with Wicket Adoption Numbers Hi, We also had the same consideration when we chose Wicket. But why choose an inferior technology just because of it's Adoption Numbers? Also, Wicket is becoming more and more popular as people see the light :) Check out Jobs Trends (Relative Growth) here (JSF vs Struts vs Wicket): http://www.indeed.com/jobtrends?q=Struts%2C+JSF%2C+Wicket&l=&relative=1 We have a couple of hundred customers and so far the feedback is great both from our Developers and our Software Architects. Customers like that the GUIs are faster due to the simplicity of Ajax Adoption in Wicket. I also know that several large privately held companies in Sweden are using Wicket, as well as large Government Agencies (e.g. the Swedish Immigration Office).
