This Week in Spring - December 13th, 2016

Engineering | Josh Long | December 13, 2016 | ...

Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! This year has flown so quickly by! Can you believe we're less than 19 days until 2017? I'm utterly stunned. I suppose I shouldn't be, though, given the breakneck speed of progress and new software releases from the Spring team and the community. What a good problem to have!

This week, after returning from Australia early Sunday morning, I hacked with my buddy Josh McKenty, I spoke with my buddy Baruch at the San Francisco Java User Group on Monday, will speak with my buddy Matt Raible at the Denver Java User Group on Wednesday (don't miss it!), and will speak in Saint Louis on Thursday and Hartford on Friday. It's going to be a fun week and if you're around, don't hesitate to say hi

On behalf on the Spring Roo team at DISID Corporation, I'm pleased to announce the third milestone of Spring Roo 2.0. This is the last milestone, from now on we're going to work in the first release candidate.

M3 generates fully functional Spring applications, this release includes important changes in the architecture of the generated applications, that should be compatible with the improvements that the RC1 will introduce but it is not guaranteed, so the projects generated with the M3 might not been upgraded automatically by the RC1.
