Squid 2.7.x
-
Is there any chance the Squid 2 package will be updated from 2.6.x to 2.7.x?
Squid 2.7 is faster, uses less RAM, and has some extremely useful features such as StoreUrlRewrite. A lot of optimization work went in to the 2.7 branch and the Squid folks that you should absolutely make the change. Is there any reason this hasn't happened?
-
Given that people have to give up their free time, possibly because nobody has raised a bounty ;)
Alternatively, if you can create your own package…
-
It is mostly curious because the Squid 2 package with 2.6.x versions is updated. The configuration file changes between the two are relatively minor, so staying with 2.6.x is odd.
-
As I said, people have to give up their free time to do this. While it might be "minor", somebody has to want to do it - money is always a motivator.
-
Like $10 as a motivator, or $1000 as a motivator?
-
Take a look at the bounty forum, see what others are offering, see what you want/can afford to offer.
ISTR that $50 to $100 is a common starting point, but the idea is that others can chip in to increase your offer to a larger overall total, thereby increasing the incentive for somebody to pick it up.
-
I'll jump on board with some money if you start a bounty - others may too…
-
Without web-gui its pretty easy.
-
Will you provide some instructions for doing it without the GUI?
-
There is now a $250 bounty offered by me if any of you(s) are interested in developing or contributing additional funds. I need a working GUI though…
