title: Downloading Spring Framework release 3.2
body: <p>Currently, I'm looking at the <a href="http://www.springsource.org/download/community" rel="nofollow noreferrer">springsource community download</a> site.</p>
  
  <p>It shows that <strong>3.2.4</strong> is the latest general release. Its zip file has <code>dist</code> suffix and the content is different than the latest in 3.1 branch <strong>3.1.4</strong> (which does not have <code>dist</code> ending).  </p>
  
  <p>3.1.4 has the following directories:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>dist</li>
  <li>projects</li>
  <li>src</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p><strong>dist</strong> folder contains <code>org.springframework...*</code> jars.</p>
  
  <p>3.2.4 has the following directories:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>docs</li>
  <li>libs</li>
  <li>schema </li>
  </ul>
  
  <p><strong>lib</strong> folder contains <code>spring-...</code> jars</p>
  
  <p>Was there a major change between <code>3.1</code> and <code>3.2</code> releases?  </p>
  
  <p>According to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4053981/minimum-jars-for-spring-3-0-dependency-injection">this accepted answer</a> there was but I was not able to find anything about it.</p>
  
  <p>Does anybody have any particulars?</p>
  
  <p>Should I get 3.1.4 for now?</p>
