I'm using Mina without Spring, it's really great! I don't think you need it, unless you want to make a Sping app. It has an integration lib for Spring, just like it has an integration lib for JMX. The JMX module is also really great, I didn't know much about JMX but managed to create a fully functional server console for my Mina server (and client for debugging) in about 30 minutes.
