I am not big fun of spring except JDBCtemplate. Overall, I think that too much XML/annotation configuration based tools fill in Java community and make a lot of people believe they know how to program, but actually just know how to twist XML file and @annotation without really understand how these things work together. Also, this means that after you programming this way in a long time, your programming skill set would be coupled to the J2EE world which is the most uncool part of Java community and also not healthy to your career.
