Double negation there?

Have you tried tiling a bug report in redhat bugzilla? It's the best
contact method available for reaching RHEL package maintainers.

If I am not mistaken the RHEL Squid maintainer is the same who is main
maintainer in Fedora: Michal Luscon <mluscon_at_redhat.com>, and if not I
am sure Michal known who is maintainin the RHEL package.

Jiri Skala have moved on to other tasks I think.

RHEL upgrade policy prevents any Guinna pigs. But also prevents most bug
fixes..

Define "care about".

Our main concern is the source distribution moving forward. We do not
have resources to keep maintaining a frozen stable branch for many years
as needed by RHEL and the like.

But we should try to keep a clean upgrade path.
