There is no better time write than now

I just handed our keys and garage door opener to the title company. Doing this while writing a book highlights how easy it is in this day and Internet age to really work from a laptop. As stressful as these last couple of days have been, I'm glad I decided to write. If you want to write, I encourage you to do the same!

Spring Python 1.1.0.RC1 released

See http://www.springsource.org/node/2490 for the official notice.

Spring Python takes the concepts of the Spring Framework and applies them to Python. This includes features like dependency injection, aop, remoting, data access, transactions, and security, all with a non-invasiveness style.

This is the first release candidate for version 1.1. We are quickly approaching final release. You can read more detail with the online documentation (see official notice for more links, as well as the sidebars of this blog). You can also pre-order your copy of the Spring Python 1.1 from Packt Publishing, due for release in June 2010.
