The Squid HTTP Proxy team is pleased to announce the
availability of the Squid-3.0.STABLE16-RC1 release!
This release contains only two bug fixes. The small Bug 2648 "NTLM
helpers not shutting down when deferred" has now been tested and found
useful.
The larger ongoing issue of broken servers sending chunked transfer
encoding to Squid 3.0 is now also fixed by this release. Due to the
chunked transfer encoding changes being fairly large and the request
handling not yet having wide testing usage behind it this release is
marked a release candidate.
Thanks are due to the Gentoo project for porting the chunked reply
handling from Squid 3.1.
Thanks are due to the Measurement Factory and a currently anonymous
sponsor for the addition of chunked request handling.
Please refer to the release notes at

if and when you are ready to make the switch to Squid-3.
