Hi All,
Whenever I visit squid-cache.org site. I always have a doubt is, why there are multiple stable version available for production release? What i mean is, when there is 3.0 stable release is available for production, then still why 2.7 is available. I can understand that, older versions should be available to the users, but then it may come under older version head not in the current versions list.
I see nothing wrong with having two current versions. I may have two servers, one which was installed last week with a fresh copy of CentOS5 and other which was installed 7 years back with Debian Woody. Running bleeding edge applications on older installations is a headache. There can be other issues like older hardware incapable of running latest and greatest software.
