Dear Spring Community,

I am pleased to announce that the Spring Integration 2.0.0 Milestone 1 release is now available.

Download | Reference Documentation | Release Notes

This milestone introduces the following features:

• Spring EL support for endpoints (router, filter, transformer, etc)
• Spring EL support for Messaging Mappers including a parameter-level @MessageMapping annotation
• AOP-based MessagePublishingInterceptor including a method-level @Publisher annotation (using SpEL also)
• JMS-backed Message Channels as drop-in replacements for any channel elements
• and more (see the Release Notes for the full list)

Community feedback is more important than ever during the milestone phase, and we have a lot of exciting features on the 2.0 roadmap. So please give this milestone a try and join the discussions on the forum and issue tracker. Thanks!

Mark Fisher
Spring Integration Lead
