Re: [Springframework-developer] Spring Framework Logo

[Isabelle M. <isa...@me...>]

Well, if "J2EE made easy" is not quite right, how about "J2EE for the masses"? Just kidding. Maybe "J2EE the right way" or something in that direction?
Or "The road to J2EE"
Or "J2EE Nirvana"
Or "The Zen of J2EE"
I actually kind of like the last two...
