How much do you cover these topics in your book?
Chapter 2 goes into the architecture and covers session handling and request cycle processing. Though we don't go into too much detail (i.e. server settings, technical details), because we think that you won't need that level of detail for building successful applications with Wicket.
How much do you cover on how to "tweak" the application.
something like getApplicationSettings().aMethod() ?
Chapter 14 (chapter 15 in the MEAP) covers configuring your application for production use. We cover quite some settings, including the differences between the DEVELOPMENT and DEPLOYMENT configuration settings.
