Spring 3.0.5 With SpEL Improvements

Spring version 3.0.5 has been released. This version supports Hibernate 3.6 final and uses Java Serialisation to add core serialiser abstraction. ConversionService now protects itself against infinite recursion in ObjectToCollectionConverter. The Spring Expression Language passes full collection type context to ConversionService, and its ‘select last’ operator should now work consistently with maps. In total, this release addresses over 80 minor issues.
