Let's back up here a minute.
First off, you are a thankless idiot for thinking that these guys
doing open source software, to your benefit, with absolutely no
compensation from you, are anything like the relationship you have
with your clients. Do you work for free for your clients? No, I
didn't think so. (Any synapses firing for you yet?)
Secondly, I am personally affronted by your attacks and insults
against these gentlemen because you have some kind of identity crisis
or were born some form of eunuch and left in a trash can. Where the
hell do you get off doing anything but praising these guys for
creating the value that you are selling to your customers and putting
food on your own table with? The rest of us are *very* thankful to
these guys, and when people like you come around any open source
project spewing insults, you are not just attacking them, you are
attacking each and every one of the people in the open source
community... and especially those of us that use Wicket.
I hope you have the guts to realize what an ass you are making of
yourself and stand up and apologize. Not for any of our sake, we've
seen your type before and it rolls right off. It's for your own sake,
because in five years when you look back at this incident (and the
countless others like it), you are going to hate yourself for who you
are. And that's a lot worse than anything we could ever say against
you.
Brian
p.s. As for your gracious offer to RTFM, welcome to how we all do
it. The source is the best documentation there is. Get used to it.

Hi Igor,
First of all, I would want to say that I've solved the problem
myself and having now a great table component with all what I needed.
And I also want to say that I don't think I owe you as a developer
anything for using Wicket. Of course being an open source
developer, you have the luxury to tell your clients that. In my
world, I try to be helpful to my clients even with the insults that
occasionally come with their being in bad mood. In all those
circumstances I strife to be client friendly, even when I've had
the worst sleep ever, or my girlfriend denied me sex the previous
night.
Because of the my impression so far, I've decided to download the
Wicket source and look for answers to my future questions there.
Probably I'd be less productive that way but unfortunately I don't
clearly see any other alternative.
Have a nice day, even when you couldn't get sufficient caffeine
dose for the day.

so not having the _personal_ time to answer every single question
that is on this list makes us arrogant? that is great!
do you think i would rather spend my time pumping you for
information or spend that time in a park playing with my daughter?
maybe if you wouldve spent more then two minutes of your time
writing up an appropriate question with code examples or a
quickstart project instead of something so vague it is useless
someone wouldve bothered to reply.
remember: just because you are using wicket it doesnt mean the
developers owe you anything. look at the threads on this list,
quiet a lot of them are answered by other users. why do you think
none of them answered yours?
and unlike eelco i do hope this comes across as arrogant because
your email was very disrespectful.

Hi all,
I was attracted to Wicket because of its finesse and all the
stories around praising how helpful their developers and user
community are and the quick response one receives when you post a
question. I must say, my experience has been bad so far. I posed
the question below 2 days ago and still no response. I've known
frameworks whose developers were also initially very helpful but
became arrogant when they got the popularity and success. I hope
Wicket is not getting on that slippery road.

Hi,
I'm implementing a form with a table component as one of its
component. The table has some textfields columns. The problem is
that upon submit my model is not updated to reflect the values
filled in the textfields. Can someone point me to an example where
this sort of thing is implemented? I've already looked in Wicket
examples but couldn't find anything.
Thanks,
