Which maven dependencies to include for spring 3.0?

There was a really nice post on the Spring Blog from Keith Donald detailing howto Obtain Spring 3 Aritfacts with Maven, with comments detailing when you'd need each of the dependencies...

Spring (nowadays) makes it easy to add Spring to a project by using just one dependency, e.g.

<dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>3.1.2.RELEASE</version></dependency> 

This will resolve to

[INFO] The following files have been resolved:[INFO]    aopalliance:aopalliance:jar:1.0:compile[INFO]    commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.1.1:compile[INFO]    org.springframework:spring-aop:jar:3.1.2.RELEASE:compile[INFO]    org.springframework:spring-asm:jar:3.1.2.RELEASE:compile[INFO]    org.springframework:spring-beans:jar:3.1.2.RELEASE:compile[INFO]    org.springframework:spring-context:jar:3.1.2.RELEASE:compile[INFO]    org.springframework:spring-core:jar:3.1.2.RELEASE:compile[INFO]    org.springframework:spring-expression:jar:3.1.2.RELEASE:compile

Have a look at the Spring Framework documentation page for more information.
