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!

Dear Spring Community,

I'm pleased to announce that the 1.0.1 maintenance release of Spring BlazeDS Integration, the open source solution for building Spring-powered RIAs with Adobe Flex, is now available.

Download | Reference Documentation | JavaDocs | Changelog

Along with a number of minor bug fixes and enhancements, we have done some restructuring of the popular Spring BlazeDS Test Drive bundled sample application to make it even easier to get up and running in a variety of different environments, and to bring some of the configuration elements further in line with what you might see in the near future in a SpringSource Tool Suite project creation template for Spring BlazeDS Integration projects. Also, we've enhanced the security example further to really show how having Spring Security so tightly integrated sets this solution apart from alternate approaches to securing Flex applications.

As always, I encourage anyone interested to get involved by trying out the release and giving us feedback in the community forum and Jira. We've been getting some great feedback from people having success with Spring BlazeDS Integration in their projects, and we look forward to hearing more about your experiences.

Lastly, for anyone headed to Adobe MAX 2009, be sure and check out the session I'll be co-presenting with Mark Fisher on "Integrating Spring with BlazeDS and LiveCycle Data Services" on Wednesday, October 7th at 2PM.
