Re: [Springframework-developer] Preparing for Spring 1.1 final

[Colin S. <col...@ex...>]

I've gone through the jpetstore and petclinic apps and modified them to 
define transaction proxies in the more concise form.

I've also generated a new version of the docs and updated the web site. 
I will update at least one more time after we finally release...
