Wicket versions

Here's a small description of the different Wicket releases. Our current stable release is Wicket 1.2.5, which is released outside the Apache Software Foundation. Development within the Apache Software Foundation is ongoing on Wicket 1.3 and 2.0. Wicket 2.0 was scheduled as our next major release, but considering that it requires Java 1.5 or newer, the Wicket team decided to backport some major features into our Wicket 1 stream. The result of this effort is the upcoming Wicket 1.3. We are currently stabilizing Wicket 1.3. This will be the last JDK 1.4 compatible release. The next version will require JDK 1.5.
