I am one of the authors of a new project intended to provide Ehcache integration for Spring 3 projects via annotations:

http://code.google.com/p/ehcache-spring-annotations/

We are excited to announce the general availability of the first production release, 1.0.1.

This release provides 2 method-level annotations in the spirit of Spring's @Transactional:

@Cacheable
@TriggersRemove

When appropriately configured in your Spring application, this project will create caching aspects at runtime around your @Cacheable annotated methods.

Usage documentation can be found on the project wiki:
