Re: [jug-discussion] presentation drive
Regrettably I cannot offer my services. As some of you already know I will be joining the ranks of the TJUG expatriates in the near future. I've just taken a job at Google as a Programming Instructor and will be moving to Mountain View, CA to work at the Googleplex. On the plus side, I could come back and give a talk on Google's search architecture: where their datafarms are, how many queries they handle, the exact size of their index, etc. Just kidding. If I did that, I'd have to kill you. (It's fun knowing secrets!) Standard disclaimer: apologies for the terseness of this email, I'm typing with a broken wrist.

Re: [jug-discussion] "Simple" Spring question
I bet your solution would be enough, since the version file could probably be modified into properties file format.

I suspect you already know that *if* the file was in Java Properties (i.e. key=value) format that you could have Spring inject the value directly into your bean, as illustrated below where I am assuming that the file 'AntHillPro.properties' contains a line like: anthillpro.version=5.6 Perhaps there is some similar way to just retrieve a single value.
