to Whom it may concern:
I, Rafael Martinez, software developer integrated at Euro6IX proyect (http://www.euro6ix.org), would like to join the SQUID developer's team in order to contribute the CVS version to be ported into IPv6.
I have valuable skill on porting programs into IPv6 (see http://www.ngn.euro6ix.org/IPv6) but up to date my contribution is releasing the patches in an informal-way, non certified, for evaluating purposes and experimenting by the research community (usually Universities). Always under the terms by the GPL license.
In some cases, like the PERL INET6 module, I'm the official maintainer. Others, like TCL and MySQL are transiently considered.
Summing up, I have been one month learning the internals of the SQUID layout, on the STABLE-VERSION (tar.gz) , and I have a -yet uncomplete- patch for 2.5.STABLE8 version. In the CVS patch,( I have to check and read it depthly ) it seems like the wwcp, ftp, icp, protocols are not touched yet...ç On ASN module you will face a non-trivial problem to index a table with 128 bits integers, since the longest C-integer is 64 bits...
I think my work will be more usefull if you do accept me to join the CVS with write permissions, or, in case of security police, I cand send you my local patchs to commit them-
You should not care on my salary, assurance or other contractual matters, since I'm paid by the Euro6IX consortium.
Waiting instructions from your side,
Rafael Martinez.
Hello Rafael,
I have been starting to create IPv6 support for squid3. (See http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1026 and the bottom of http://devel.squid-cache.org/projects.html ). I would be happy if someone (you) could pursue creating IPv6 support more intensely than I am currently able to (due to lack of unpaid time).
ciao, Xuân.
