Thats because the version numbers are misleading.
Squid-2 and Squid-3 are different "paths", you can say. They probably
would benefit from being called different names, but thats a different
story.
Squid-2 has seen continued development and will see continued
development whilst people are using it.
i use squid basically for web caching, and i dont even need advanced
features even on web caching: ACLs, authentication and delay_pools are
basically what i need. No need for reverse proxy things, ICAP and some
of those other features ....
Do you think sticking with 2.7 would be a better idea than with 3.0 ??
What Adrian continuously fails to mention, is that he is the only
developer actively working on improving Squid-2. The rest of us major
developers have decided Squid-2 should be superseded by Squid-3 and are
improving Squid-3. Importing features from Squid-2 to Squid-3 as people
need them.
As for changing; Squid-3 has more and better ACL controls than Squid-2.
Squid-2 has more work from Adrian in speed improvements than Squid-3.
Based on that list you gave, it's a matter of choice for you whether you
need those new and finer ACL controls in Squid-3 or more speed.
