The Apache Wicket PMC is proud to announce Apache Wicket 6.21.0!

This release marks another minor release of Wicket 6. We use semantic versioning for the development of Wicket, and as such no API breaks are present breaks are present in this release compared to 6.0.0.

</dependency>

Or download and build the distribution yourself, or use our convenience binary package
