Eberhard Wolff is going to present both the new features of Spring 3.0 as well as the next steps in Spring development. While I’m not very interested in 3.0 (hey, we at QuinScape developed with Spring 3.0 poster in cooperation with Eberhard Wolff and Software & Support) I’m always looking forward to new tidbits of information about the next versions - and this is a nice warmup early in the morning

Adam Bien is going to talk about the future of Enterprise Java.

Fabiane Bizinella Nardon is going to give an overview about one of the largest - maybe the largest - EJB application ever created. Knowing very few actually working EJB systems I am very interested in this.
