Dear Spring Community,

We are pleased to announce that the first milestone release of Spring Social 1.0 is now available!

Spring Social enables development of social-ready applications, linking your application's users to the social networks where they hang out. What's more the capabilities of Spring Social are illustrated by the Greenhouse reference application.

Spring Social 1.0.0-M1 contains the following core features:

• Social templates for interaction with Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, TripIt, and Greenhouse
• An OAuth-enabled connection factory for signing RestTemplate requests with OAuth authentication details
• A web argument resolver for extracting Facebook user ID and access token information in a Spring MVC controller

To get you started, I've posted Socializing Spring Applications, an introduction to Spring Social.

This milestone release is just the beginning. We look forward to your feedback to help us shape Spring Social.
