[Building Sakai] Upgrading Springframework libraries

Dear Matthew,we are not considering moving to Sakai version 10 yet because we are still experiencing various issues with this version in our test environment. The reason to know the configuration for a newer version of Spring Framework is because we're having an exception at the time of starting Tomcat after we installed Evaluation System 1.3.
We tried to deploy it with mvn 3.1.1 but we found out that mvn 2.2.1 is the required version for this. We have also tried two different Tomcat versions (7.0.21 and 7.0.55) but we were unsuccessful.
This is the exception we are getting. Thank you very much for any help:

The Spring 3 changes are not really backward compatible. If you need to use a Spring 3 tool you'll want to upgrade to Sakai 10. It might be technically possible to make all of the changes for Hibernate 3.6 and Spring 3.2 in 2.9, but you'd be changing every tool and really overall be better off just going to Sakai 10 anyway.

Dear All,does anybody know if it is safe to upgrade the libraries in which some Sakai version depends on?I'm using Sakai 2.9.2 and I need to upgrade my Springframework libraries from version 2.X (that is a single jar file) to version 3.X (that are a bunch of files). This is my master/pom.xml:
            <dependency>                <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>                <artifactId>spring</artifactId>                <version>2.5.6.SEC02</version>            </dependency>
If it is possible, how can I do it?Thank you so much for your answer.
