We've been idle for a couple of months. But now we're back and eager to do some coding.
Welcome back!
As you might remember, we have got an almost complete ETag/Vary patch for squid3.
Excellent!
The 'almost' part is about the things in squid itself. To name a few: the case of buggy httpValidatorsMatch function, the bug that store entry cannot be updated in the store.
We are getting some progress in getting Squid-3 bugs fixed so things should improve over the next months.
As we're interested in our patch being fully applicable and functional, we could try to fix these and other bugs.
You are more than welcome to fix any bugs you encounter. Squid-3 is in serious shortage of developers working on or with the codebase.
To make our life a little easier it helps if you register a bug report when encountering a bug, and if fixed attach the patch there. Try to avoid as much as possible to have bugfixes in your development tree.
The use of a branch avare source maintenance tools such as
* My CVS scripts for devel.squid-cache.org
* GNU Arch, used by Robert for a lot of Squid-3 work
* svk, looks promising but no Squid repository set up yet
is highly recommended as this allows you to actively follow the continued development and bugfixes while developing your "new feature".
