Hi Spring fans! Welcome to another sunny installment of This Week in Spring! Can you believe we're now staring down Q4 2019? How time flies!

As i write this I'm sat in a Radisson Blu hotel in Oslo, Norway, for the epic JavaZone show. I've got tons of wonderful memories at this hotel, often enjoyed with my friends on the Spring team, over many, many years. I love this show and am so glad to be back for the first time since 2015!

I landed today, recorded a few episodes of Spring Tips (new season starting soon!), took an ill-timed nap, and now here we are! We've got a ton to cover so let's get to it!
