I've packaged an updated version of squid as Miquel has been away for a
while (current deb version is 1.1.1.  upstream version is 1.1.8.  many bug
fixes - some Linux specific - and a few new features).  All i did was take
the new upstream source, run deb-make, copy in Miquel's debian/ directory
from his 1.1.1-1 package, and then tidy up a bit (rm -f debian/*.ex)


I've been running it for over a week on two systems (one small proxy, one
HUGE) with no problems.  in fact, it works better and faster than the old
version did under heavy load. 

what should i do with it? does anyone want me to upload it to Incoming to
go into frozen?

what was the policy on non-maintainer releases?  -0 for debian version or
something like that?
