Squid support contracts via MARA Systems is one quite direct way of
supporting the Squid development, or at least my part of it.

 - It's nice to have a reference and I am sure it has bits that either
 weren't in the FAQ or on this list or are but will be more easily
 findable via the TOC or index/book format.

The FAQ is helplessly behind and poorly structured. We have long been 
looking for someone who can help with maintaining the FAQ but so far no 
success.. there has been a few people who have tried, but they never even 
managed to make a single change (not even spelling corrections). I guess 
it is simply too much and they quickly ran away when realising what mess 
it is..

 - I won't always be with this company and this will help me turn
 over our Squid proxies to whoever takes my place.

And so would a support contract ;-)

Regards
Henrik

Let me second this. 

If anyone here wants to contribute fiscally, but their company won't
allow a donation, buy something from one of the active developers - I
live in Sydney Australia, and support clients locally and worldwide.
MARA systems supports folk worldwide as far as I'm aware.

 Indeed - many congratulations Duane.  I saw  Duane's
 sig and like
 Henrik just assumed it was supposed to be a sig but
 like he said, if
 Duane wants to put it at the top, no problem for me
 all his posts
 were/are helpful.  Although this mailing list is
 awesome I will be
 buying the book for three reasons:
 
 - my company doesn't let us send money or donations
 to the squid
 project (I've asked - I'd like to donate a Sun since
 that is what we
 use, but we can't donate).  But we *can* buy books
 so we'll be getting
 at least two.

 Again, I think this is a great achievement and I am
 looking forward to
 it.  And as Henrik mentions, it's a major step for
 Squid and should be
 noticed!  Thanks again Duane and the whole Squid
 Team!

Dear All

squid is very popular software 
You people should invite for college and university
students to maintain squid site for you. 

and they aslo can sponsor squid development.

or something at Govt level.

aslo there is very less information about support
contract at MARA System site . i should me written
clearly and their charges in $$$

so anyone interested will look at services you are
offering. 

Wish all developers Good Luck for what they do.

keep it up the good work !


Thanks and Regards

 I appreciate this list being here, but why am I seeing what 
 appear to be 
 automated responses from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to buy his book? Not 
 exactly a useful response to myself and others.
 
 I'm new to this list, is this normal here?
