Ben gave me his C# learning environment in the form of a Virtual Box appliance.  Seems to work ok.  I was able to log into the site and change my password. Going to finish up on the "clean" Spring shutdown code.  Finally got it working.  One of the keys is to call shutdownNow() on all the ExecutorService objects.  Using shutdown() is too nice and can leave threads hanging around which prevents the application from shutting down. Starting documenting the Ant + Ivy + Groovy build process.  It has reached a level of maturity that warrants documentation.
