Spring Framework presentation — Enterprise Java with a human face

At WebExpo 2008, held on 18–19 October, I will give a presentation about the Spring Framework, subtitled Enterprise Java with a human face. I will discuss, for example, where Java failed in web applications and how that influenced Spring’s creation. I will present basic technical ideas such as IoC and AOP, which I consider conceptually central. Naturally, I will also touch on the influence of dynamic languages. The talk is designed even for people with little or no idea what Spring is. Please consider this an invitation.
