Migrating from Roo to Grails

I have an web application developed using Spring Roo. This is just a standard Roo application with only a few Java classes that were not generated by Roo itselef. After using Grails for a while in another application, I decided to move my application to Grails because of Groovy and its large set of plugins.

My question is: which strategy should I use to migrate from Spring Roo to Spring Grails? My first guess is to remove Roo from my application as described here and then install the SpringMVC plugin on the new Grails application so I can continue using my old application artifacts on the new project.

The first step is very simple, but the second is not clear for me yet. I have found an article about using spring controllers and jsps here, but I am still worried as this is an application already in production. Is there anything else I am not considering? I would appreciate any suggestions or warnings on this strategy.

Thanks

The springmvc plugin was quite dated so I updated it to work with Grails 2.0+ - see http://burtbeckwith.com/blog/?p=1735 for more information and a sample applicaiton. If you have any issues using it please report them in JIRA at http://jira.grails.org/browse/GPSPRINGMVC
