Hey Alexandre,
I agree with you greatly. I do think that we're starting to see a lot
of Spring usage, and I like it for many of the same reasons Thomas
mentioned (Thomas, installment two has the DAO stuff you talk about
added back in).
As an FYI, take a look at the Kuali project (http://www.kuali.org/). It
is a massive undertaking being developed by a group universities,
private companies, and groups like the Open Source Lab that will result
in an ERP system including Financial Information System, Research
Administration and all that sort of thing. The primary toolset is
OJB/Spring with struts on the front.
So I think these types of tools are gaining traction.

Jason,
I have not read your articles for the moment but IMHO this is a very
positive initiative.
I like to work with OJB, and I also appreciate Spring a lot - they are
both great tools.
Spring aims at integration of various frameworks. It has a strong
persistence layer integration - integration is great with Hibernate,
JDO, iBatis. But you will never find any reference to OJB.
I suppose the reasons are mainly political but anyway, it's a
shame.For example, Spring is a great factor of expansion for
Hibernate, as every little sample it provides uses hibernate.
It would be a shame if OJB did not take the opportunity.
I am not yet a Spring expert, but tell me if I can help in anyway!
I'd also be interested in reading what you OJB committers (Armin,
Thomas, Jacob, Martin...) think about it!
