The Apache License is used for Wicket, commons-logging and log4j. Though Wicket is not affiliated with Apache, we do use the ASF license for our project as we think it provides the most freedom for our users.
So to my knowlegde there is no dangerous license in the wicket packages. We have tried to keep the LGPL and GPL licenses out.
One thing to note is that the Date picker component is LGPL licensed. The DatePicker is available in the wicket extensions project. I have yet to find out what LGPL means in the case of _javascript_, as you always distribute the source to the clients.
IANAL, so if it is really a major concern, you might want to check whether ASF license is allowed. Is that the case, you are free to distribute Wicket 1.1. The open symphony license should also be checked for Wicket 1.1. Wicket 1.2 is fully ASF, and doesn't depend on OGNL anymore, only commons-logging. Log4j is an optional jar, but is also ASF licensed.
Wicket-extensions 1.2 still contains the DatePicker which is LGPL licensed. So you might want to stay clear of that one.

If we were to include the Wicket JARs (wicket-1.1.jar,
commons-logging-1.0.4, log4j-1.2.11.jar, ognl-2.6.7.jar) in a NetBeans
module (possibly to de distributed/packaged with NetBeans at some future
date) would we have licensing issues to deal with in relation to Wicket?
(I suspect that the latter 3 are not needed, but I'm not sure.) What
procedures would we need to go through?
