Dear Spring Community,

We are pleased to announce the release of Spring Social 1.0.1!

Spring Social is an extension of the Spring Framework that enables you to connect your Java applications to Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) providers such as Facebook and Twitter.

In addition to the core Spring Social project, Spring Social Twitter 1.0.1 and Spring Social Facebook 1.0.1 are also now available. Within these releases are fixes for bugs found since 1.0.0 and a handful of minor enhancements. Refer to the changelogs (Core | Facebook | Twitter) for more details.

We're also excited to announce that Spring Social LinkedIn 1.0.0.M4 is now available and includes a more complete API binding. We are looking forward to your feedback as we bring Spring Social LinkedIn closer to a 1.0.0 GA release. (Thanks to Robert Drysdale for contributing much of the LinkedIn API binding code!)

To get the software, download the release distribution (Core | Facebook | Twitter) or simply add the maven artifacts to your project. To see it live, try out the quickstart and fire up the samples. Supplement as you go with information from the reference manual.

Spring Social requires Spring Framework 3.0.5 or > to run. We recommend Spring 3.1 for new applications to take advantage of the latest advances in the core framework. See the reference manual for a full description of dependencies.
