Mail-Excel-PDF without JSF (With Wicket)

Dear Group,

This question has been asked before (but it has never received any repiles)

Could I ask again, to see if anybody has any ideas.

I'd really like to render email, pdf and excel but I'm using wicket.

What would be required to get a working renderer?

With a great many thanks

Rob

The pdf/excel/mail renderers are all implemented with JSF components. It would be essentially a complete rewrite to make them work without JSF. I don't think that work is currently being taken on, though I could be mistaken.

Alternatively, under Seam 3 (or under Seam 2 with my patches, search the list) it is possible to use wicket and jsf side by side in a webapp. In that case, you could use wicket for normal web pages but redirect to jsf pages when you want pdf/excel/mail rendering.
