From the desk of Rod Johnson.....

Over the last two-and-a-half years, it's been great to see the Spring 
community grow from a small, enthusiastic group of talented developers 
to thousands of users. Over this time, Spring has gone through many 
important milestones: adoption in many large enterprises, publication of 
best-selling books, endorsement by large vendors, overflowing sessions 
at Java One and other conferences. But the enthusiasm and technical 
focus has remained. The Spring Experience is another major milestone: an 
international conference wholly devoted to Spring. Interface21 are 
particularly excited to be organizing this event in partnership with 
NoFluffJustStuff (NFJS). NFJS has a strong tradition of organizing 
technically focused events for developers, filled with in-depth content. 
The Spring Experience will be a unique opportunity for developers to 
hear in detail about all parts of Spring. Attendees will get a chance to 
meet all the core Spring developers, and learn both how to make the most 
of Spring, and where it's going in the future.
