The only reason I haven't upgraded beyond the current stable 2.6 code is that some third part companies (like Secure Computing, who we use as a Squid plugin) only supports certain versions of squid. I haven't even played with 3.0 because of this. I think squid hands down is an amazing proxy software and I will continue to keep using it going forward. We use are proxies as content filtering devices as well...so need the support of both.

I agree with this. FWIW I see squid 2 and 3 as very similar to apache 1.x and 2.x - apache 2 took a _long_ time to be considered an 'upgrade' by _all_ users, and squid3 has been in the same boat. I don't think that the amount of work to make squid3 better for all users is insurmountable by the community, and I think that continuing the polish on squid3 is the best way forward. YMMV of course :). -Rob -- GPG key available at: <http://www.robertcollins.net/keys.txt>.
