Migrating to Wicket 7.0
Environment
Wicket 7.0 requires at least Java 7
Wicket 7.0 requires Servlet 3.0
The HTTP response is not flushed automatically when the request is started in asynchronous mode. WICKET-5152
This is an improvement in Wicket 7.0 which should not affect any application migrating from Wicket 6.x. But if you use Servlet 3.0's AsyncContext in IResource in Wicket 7 then make sure that your code flushes the http response after completing the request.
