[squid-users] Squid 3.2.7 is available

The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
of the Squid-3.2.7 release!

This release is a bug fix release resolving a number of memory leaks
and bugs found in the prior releases.

Some major changes to be aware of:

* Numerous memory leaks are now resolved

With help from Coverity, RedHat and several other contributors we have
managed to close a number of small memory leaks and a few larger ones.
The majority of these leaks are individual objects

* raw-IP URL handling when IPv6 is disabled has been fixed

This resolves teh final issues known with systems having IPv6 disabled
or operating with a split TCP stack.

* OpenSSL NO_Compression option support

This SSL option allows disabling of TLS/SSL compression to assist with
preventing CRIME attacks on proxy HTTPS traffic.
  This excludes CONNECT tunnels where the proxy is not involved.

  See the ChangeLog for the full list of changes in this and earlier
  releases.

  All users of Squid-3 are urged to upgrade to this release as soon as
  possible.

Please remember to run "squid -k parse" when testing upgrade to a new
version of Squid. It will audit your configuration files and report
any identifiable issues the new release will have in your installation
before you "press go". We are still removing the infamous "Bungled
Config" halting points and adding checks, so if something is not
identified please report it.

Please refer to the release notes at
http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.2/RELEASENOTES.html
when you are ready to make the switch to Squid-3.2

Upgrade tip:
   "squid -k parse" is starting to display even more
    useful hints about squid.conf changes.
