Hi

Thanks for stepping up. If you need more manpower just yell and ask for help 
from
our users. Furthermore, Kerin Millar did an excellent job on bug #311927 so
you could work with him ( and co-maintain squid if you want ). That would be
the best way imho to keep squid in a good shape :)

Seems like my post created some noise and squid will move forward soon \o/
