We care about everyone, but do not have the time or energy to support
silent distros. I'm kind of working around in a cycle, Gentoo were
updated earlier this year, Debian just recently got out of freeze. Your
push of unofficial CentOS packages has been a welcome step forward
there, if you are interested in pushing in other areas of the
Fedora/RHEL/CentOS chain that would be a great help.
The top food chains for Squid seem to be Gentoo, Fedora, Debian. The
BSD's are still a mess of cross-pollinating packages. The remainder are
largely walled-silos with no transparency (Mandrake, MacOS, Solaris
looking at you), or build-it-yourself requirements for users (Slackware
et al.).
If you are interested in getting into the RHEL food chain, Jiri Skala's
details can be identified from the info at
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/KnowledgeBase/RedHat (its been a few years,
so I'm not sure if/how he is still involved) and the team packaging for
Fedora can be identified in the Packaging Information linked from
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/KnowledgeBase/Fedora.
