The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
of the Squid-7.1 release!

This release is, we believe, stable enough for general production use.
We encourage all users of any previous major version of Squid to upgrade to it,
as well as users of beta version 7.0.X.

It can be downloaded from GitHub, at
https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/releases/tag/SQUID_7_1


Since version 6, Squid offers:
 * better support for overlapping IP ranges and wildcard domains in acl
 * countless security, portability, and documentation fixes

Since version 6, some previously deprecated features have been removed:
 * Edge Side Includes (ESI)
 * access to the cache manager using the cache_object:// scheme - use
http instead
 * the squdclient tool - use curl
http://<squid-address>/squid-internal-mgr/menu instead
 * the cachemgr.cgi tool
 * the purge tool - use the http PURGE method instead
 * Ident protocol support
 * basic_smb_lm_auth and ntlm_smb_lm_auth helpers - use Samba's
ntlm_auth instead

Further details can be found in the release notes and in the changelog

Please remember to run "squid -k parse" when testing the 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".

If you encounter any issues with this release please file a bug report at
https://bugs.squid-cache.org/
