Martin, Andrea, Maxim, Thank you all for your answers!
GA version will be a gift for us for sure:) Yes - we can use Java 8 source level with Wicket 7, but we have some internal dependency for resolving of which we need to invest some good amount of time. Andrea, regarding my second question. It was about compatibility by features between wicket 7 and wicket 8. Are there something missing in Wicket which is present in Wicket 7? Maxim, you wrote about using of Wicket 8 on production. Is that some open source? Can you send a link? You can make it privately:) And guys, you are doing incredible web-framework! Thank you for that. I'm quite surprised that Wicket is not widely used:) Do you have some marketing difficulties? I personally expect that Wicket 8 release will be followed by some marketing events, articles and etc. Will be glad to participate in spreading this web-framework across the World.
