I think Spring 2.5 employs annotations for DI, no more XML
I don't like about Spring, especially for new developers learning it, is that it you don't learn anything about the underlying technologies. It tries to baby you so much that in the end, you couldn't tell an interviewer what the heck you were using.

I don't know whether I should agree or disagree with you here. One of the main objectives of spring is making the developer focus more on the business logic, and not on the normal repetitive pieces of code. When I need to execute a query on a database using JDBC, I have to open a connection, create a Statement/Prepared Statement, create Result Set, execute the query, close Result Set, close Statement and close Connection. With Spring's JDBCTemplate, I just execute the query and get it in a Result Set. Same with hibernate; you don't have to handle sessions and transactions yourself. This reduces your code-base a lot, and make your code more readable, maintainable and business centric.
