Hi Willy,

I have pulled the latest master, but I only see two commits from today. I 
assume I'm in the right place " http://git.haproxy.org/git/haproxy";?

Using 3.2.10 in 1.7 is fine for Pattern, my only concern is that the old Trie 
source is not available to for users to compile in 3.2.10. All method 
signatures in 3.2.12 are unchanged from 3.2.10, so using that in 1.7 will not 
be a problem. If you are more comfortable keeping that locked to the fixed 
3.2.10, then that is fine, but the line of Dragan's statement should  then read 
something like "either use the proven stable but frozen 3.2.10 version which 
supports the Pattern algorithm".

Or, if it makes things easier for you, I can backport the trie/51Degrees.c/h 
files to 3.2.10, meaning Trie can be used in that version (the Hash Trie files 
we now distribute will be needed instead of the deprecated Trie).

Thanks,

But this one is for the doc before Dragan's patch, please pull the master.
By the way this makes me realize that we'll probably need to have a different 
doc for 1.7 and 1.8. I agree with you that 1.8 should only reference the up to 
date version. Build instructions for 3.2.10 should only appear in 1.7 and older 
for people who rely on an old signature, but there the download URL and 
instructions for 3.2.12 should be correct as well.

So feel free to update your patch on top of the current master, removing 
references to 3.2.10 and Trie, and I'll take Dragan's patch + the part relevant 
to 3.2.12 for 1.7 to encourage users to upgrade without forcing them.

Thanks!
Willy
