# Nuxeo Document Management 5.3.2-SNAPSHOT Release Notes

Welcome to Nuxeo Document Management (DM) 5.3.2-SNAPSHOT.

You can always download latest releases of Nuxeo DM from http://www.nuxeo.com/en/downloads

## Requirements

Nuxeo DM 5.3 needs Java. Please install and set up the recommended Sun Java Development Kit (JDK) 6 if it's not already installed on your computer.

Nuxeo is also compliant with the older Java 5, but support for it is likely to be dropped in a future release.

We've also had success running Nuxeo DM on the OpenJDK 6 (the default version of Java installed on most Linux distributions). We don't consider the OpenJDK as a supported platform yet, but we welcome your feedback if you encounter any trouble with it.

It won't work with any previous release of Java (e.g. Java 1.4).

Under Windows, virus scan should be configured to avoid scanning Nuxeo's installation folder. More details on this FAQ entry .
