Spring ecosystem, including Spring 3. The Groovy/Grails
Experience will provide in-depth coverage of Groovy, Grails,
and Griffon. So whether you're a Spring enthusiast, Tomcat
user, Groovy/Grails fan, or just interested in open source
development, you'll find valuable content in sessions presented
here.
SpringOne 2GX, will feature over one hundred (100) sessions
delivered by speakers who are project leads, published authors
and recognized experts. You'll meet and learn from open source
