[squid-users] Squid 3.0 STABLE 12 is available

The Squid HTTP Proxy team is pleased to announce the
availability of the Squid-3.0.STABLE12 release!

This release makes two policy changes which have come due and fixes some
bugs found in the last release.

Major policy change is to the default setting of half_closed_clients.
The default is now to have this setting off. The option itself is being
retained for accelerator setups which may need it.

Minor policy change is the removal of command line -V option for the
Squid binary. This option has been a non-action since Squid-2.6.

Bugs fixed by this release are:
   - Bug 2533: Solaris (sparc) 64-bit build breaks with gcc/g++
   - Bug 2542: ICAP filters break download resume
   - Bug 2556: HTCP fails without icp_port
   - Bug 2564: logformat '%tl' field not working as advertised
