They get their code directly from projects/communities like us. Most distributions tend to be based on one of those seeds with only a change to what they focus on. CentOS is a third-level derivative from Fedora (Fedora->RHEL->CentOS), whereas Ubuntu is a second-level derivative of Debian (Debian->Ubuntu). That is probably where you are seeing the difference between CentOS (waiting for RHEL stability, which itself only starts after Fedora stability first) vs Ubuntu (waiting only for Debian stability). I am trying to make the Squid stable releases have a regular cadence that suits the seeder OS release timetables where possible (Jan or July). So that the derivatives which wait for packages to get stable in the seeder first are not left stuck for decades with outdated Squid versions. That is still subject to bugs and what feature have been committed though. So as yet the "regular" part does not quite exist and we get delays like v4 with difficult bugs.
