<title>Supported Spring Version</title>
<para>
Snowdrop 2.0 and subsequent micro-release versions (2.0.1, 2.0.2,
etc.) should be used with Spring 2.5 (preferred version being
Spring 2.5.6.SEC03) or Spring 3.0 (preferred version being
3.0.6.RELEASE and above). Later Spring versions (3.1, 3.2. etc.) may
be compatible with Snowdrop 2.0 as long as they maintain binary
compatibility with Spring 3.0. In such cases, the instructions
regarding Spring 3.0 apply to Spring 3.1 and later as well.
