I am very excited to announce that the Spring SIG within the New England Java Users Group will be having our first meeting this Thursday (September 28th, 2006). Ramnivas Laddad (author of AspectJ in Action and Interface21 Principal) will be presenting "AspectJ for Spring Developers". This will be a great chance to learn about the enhancements in AspectJ integration within Spring 2.0.

You can read the details HERE, and be sure to click on the 'Register' link on the left-hand side of the page if you plan on attending.

This group will provide a great forum for "all things Spring" and will be meeting roughly once per quarter initially. I am looking forward to building a community and personally meeting fellow Spring users in the greater Boston area.

A special thanks to NEJUG president Steven Maienza and the NEJUG members who expressed an interest in having a Spring group and put this into motion before I even moved to Boston. Thanks!
