Squid-3.x starting to shape up
During the last months the Squid developers (mostly Robert) have been busy creating a new breed of Squid which will be named Squid-3.X. Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for Web clients, supporting FTP, gopher, and HTTP data objects. The major changes in Squid-3.0 compared to Squid-2.5 are related to the the internal design of Squid and not very visible externally. The big news is that Squid is now written in C++ while Squid-2.X and earlier were all written in C. In terms of functionality Squid-3.0 only have minor improvements, but the hope is that with the transition to C++ and a large scale cleanup of the code the Squid-3 code will be a lot easier to maintain and extend in the future. Gradually more and more components of the Squid internals will be transitioned and cleaned up from a tangled C mess with many not always apparent dependencies between different modules to a more structured and isolated C++ classes.
