Sorry to hear this.
there are a lot of people like myself interested in where squid is going, I am eagerly awaiting the release of 3.0 stable.
btw is there any way I can contribute to 3.0? I'm not a programmer but have a excellent understanding of proxys/networking/security.
Do you like writing? If so then the Squid Users Guide is looking for a maintainer.
For the 3.0 release in specific the release notes also need a bit of help, documenting the visible changes since Squid-2.5.
Then there is always the tedious work of testing and submitting bug reports, and to analyze and narrowing down already existing bug reports.
Or if you have a little programming experience, to forward port the patches from Squid-2.5 to Squid-3 (search for PATCH25 in keywords in bugzilla). In many cases this is trivial.
