Just received: Seam in action
Today I got my copy of Seam in Action, which only mentions Wicket in name, but I didn’t expect it to contain lots of Wicket related content, since the Wicket integration just came of age recently (Seam in Action was published early 2008, which is ages ago). I’m curious to learn more about Seam… (but [...]
Tapestry 5 has been released

Instant karma happiness
Sometimes when you feel down and let down by humanity you need to find something to cheer you up. For some reason seeing that the whole world can be united with a simple stupid dance does that for me. “Where the hell is Matt” (site currently down) is a long running internet fad that still [...]

Bruno has been around for quite a while now and if I remember correctly visits the Wicket IRC channel on and off (probably when he isn’t lying on Ipanama beach). [...]
Wicket Creator Looking for Work
I am currently shopping around for work. I expect this work would involve Wicket since I’m best known for that, but I’m open to all work. I would like to either find a couple more design/architecture
No JavaDoc in Wicket distribution
Until the maven site plugin is capable of actually producing a testable multi-module website, I’m putting all efforts on hold to include any docs (and JavaDocs in particular) into the Wicket distribution. I’m fed up with spending my free time figuring out the magical incantation to generate a site that runs in my browser without [...]

Sure enough I walked in the downtown Seattle Barnes and Noble and there it was!
