I recently spoke at TheServerSideJavaSymposium and at the New England JUG. My presentations, which cover some new ideas implemented in Hibernate 3.0 are now online:

http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/HowHibernate3MakesComplexThingsEasy.pdf
I find it quite hard to talk about HB3, because there is simply so much new stuff, and a lot of it is somewhat obscure. It's really difficult to communicate what a big step forward this is for us.
