Converting Play Framework Application to Spring MVC

We have done a quick proof of concept web application using PlayFramework1.2 and now we would like to proceed for production release however one of the concern is that Play Framework not enterprise compatible and wanted the application to be ported over to Spring.

Any tools or guidelines for porting over playframework project to spring MVC ?

Note: I'm saying not enterprise compatible because it seems Play1.x development been abandoned and no any new Play 1.x release recently. Also current Play framework 2.0 more focus on Scala rather than Java.

As above posters mentioned Play 1.x was an initial draft. I was in your shoes contemplating whether to rebuild the app in Spring but I gave Play 2.x a chance and now I don't think I want to go for Spring at all. With every release Play is becoming more and more feature rich. I think before migrating to Spring you should give Play 2.1 a chance. Moreover if you need Spring for DI then you can actually mix Spring with Play 2.1 as well. See this demo app:

Hope that helps.
