The Databinder community has unleashed 1.2 for our pleasure. With databinder you can build database backed applications without having to resort to Spring service layers. Databinder nicely wraps several ORM layers such as Hibernate, ActiveObjects and Cayenne. Go and grab it now!
PS. The cats are OK.
I looked for your cat pictures to link to but couldn’t find any! At one time there were kitties in AWD’s header image, at least. Meow?
