So should you still use Spring's HibernateTemplate and/or JpaTemplate??

Quick question about this article:

http://blog.interface21.com/main/200...r-jpatemplate/

The author says this in the 3rd paragraph in the "Going template-less" section:

Now, as I said before, because of a small change in Hibernate 3.0.1, Spring is able to manage the Hibernate session for you, without you having to go through the Hibernate session.

The author refers to a small change in Hibernate 3.0.1, what was that small change that has enabled the option for us to choose whether or not to use the HibernateTemplate?

Why not ask that question in a comment at the blog?

I think the documentation recommands to use JPA "template-less", at least that's what I'm doing.

It's working fine that way, and you have less coupling to Spring, as some people today say it's a bad thing to be coupled with Spring...

I think this might be what it's talking about.
