I have spend about 100 hours in creating a Wicket 1.3 port. Because half of 
Wicket consists of anonymous classes it is near impossible. I had to add about 
1000 new subclasses to get the core to work. When it compiled and actually 
wanted to start and bind to a port I was unable to get the pages to render. 
Because these 2 languages are so completely different it is not easy and it 
will mean that Wicket apps will be completely different to Wicket.NET apps.

Major problems I encountered:
property files not supported
threading impl works differently
anonymous classes not supported
loading of html files and getting them to inherit was really odd, maybe it was 
just me...

biggest frustration: finding compatible dependencies... There is a proper maven 
like system for .NET now but back then they all sucked.

Well friends, it's happened -- the company I work for has been bought by a 
larger competitor. Sadly, the new bosses prefer to work with .NET 

I don't suppose anyone has ported Wicket to .NET?
