五月已经过去一段时间了，在阿姆斯特丹和伦敦举行的S2G论坛的所有准备工作都已完成。这些S2G论坛是欧洲人获取与Spring社区相关最佳信息（以最低成本！）的首要场所！我希望在阿姆斯特丹（2011年5月26日 - € 114）和/或伦敦（2011年5月31日 - £ 99）见到您！

在此期间，那些想要更深入了解Spring框架如何在新兴的CloudFoundry开源云PaaS项目中发挥作用的人，应该务必参加网络研讨会——Spring从零到云端，60分钟内完成，面向北美和欧洲，只需短短10天！

1. SpringSource Tool Suite 2.6.1 发布。此版本包含通常的更新和功能。一些特别值得注意的功能：更新的捆绑版本vFabric tc Server 2.5版，改进的tc Server实例创建支持，以及对Spring Roo最新版本1.1.3的更新，以及（*太棒了！*）捆绑的CloudFoundry支持。查看新增功能 PDF文档以了解详情。

	<li> The  <A HREF="http://blog.cloudfoundry.com/">CloudFoundry blog</a> has run two different parts with a detailed look at  what happens when you <code>push</code> applications to the CloudFoundry project. The first post details what happens from the <a href="http://blog.cloudfoundry.com/post/4737632136/what-happens-when-you-vmc-push-an-application-to-cloud">client-side perspective</a>. The second post provides details on what happens from <a href="http://blog.cloudfoundry.com/post/5223861703/how-cloud-foundry-works-when-a-new-application-is">the cloud-side perspective, once the application's been <code>push</code>-ed.</a> Check it out! All of this information, of course, can be gleamed by looking <a href="http://www.github.com/CloudFoundry">at the source</a>, but it's nice to have it laid out clearly. Makes reading the source easier, too!

<a href="http://www.springsource.org/spring-android/news/1.0.0.m3-released">Spring Android 1.0.0.M3 Released</a>: Spring Android supports usage of the Spring Framework in a Android environment. The 1.0.0.M3 release focuses on extending the use of Spring Social in native Android applications including support for Spring Social 1.0.0.M3 and updated RestTemplate (client) support for Spring 3.1.0.M1.

	Want to learn even more about <a href="http://www.springsource.org/spring-android">Spring Android</a>? The project helps make it dead-simple to consume RESTful services from an Android client. <a href="http://www.android-peru.com/Connecting-RESTful-Web-Services-Android-Spring-Rest">Here's a cool talk about consuming RESTful web services using Spring Android's <code>RestTemplate</code></a> from the Android-Peru.com portal (the talk's in Spanish, although the code examples are universal!).

	<a href="http://www.tomcatexpert.com">TomcatExpert.com</a> keeps publishing more and more great content for those enterprise developers and admins interested in getting the most out of Tomcat. The latest post talks about <a href="http://www.tomcatexpert.com/blog/2011/05/09/cross-site-request-forgery">Cross-Site Request Forgery</a> and how new features in Tomcat 7 can protect against it.

	Tobias Mattsson has just posted a blog on how to use 
	 <a href ="http://tobias-mattsson-magnolia.blogspot.com/2011/05/twitter-and-spring-social-in-magnolia.html">Spring Social to show recent Tweets in Magnolia CMS.</a> He also talks about a technology called <a href="http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/modules/blossom.html">Blossom,</a> which lets you embed Spring MVC controllers in a Magnolia page. Lots of cool stuff in this post!

	MyNoSQL, a community blog about NoSQL technologies, has just put up a introspective look at the <a href="http://nosql.mypopescu.com/post/5244372217/mongodb-adoption-in-the-java-world">adoption of MongoDB</a> in Java and also discusses other challenges in <em>big data</em>. My Conclusion:  Grails, Spring, Spring Data and CloudFoundry are leading the way!

  A blog, aptly named "Roo Findings", has just written a summary post about <a href="http://pragmatikroo.blogspot.com/2011/05/spring-roo-year-of-productivity.html">his year long odyssey</a> learning, using and <strong>loving</strong> Spring Roo. Lots of neat content in there, check it out!

	<LI>This post - by Oxen Software Studio - illustrates two different approaches (one in Guice, one in Spring) to solving the following scenario: <a href="http://blog.oxen.com.ar/2011/05/scope-strategies-spring-and-guice.html">I've got a scoped bean, and I need to access it from a singleton.</a> The steps to get to the final answer are as revealing as the final answer itself, since I suspect a lot of people don't know that you can do this, let alone how easy Spring makes it.
