[squid-announce] Squid version 7.3 is available

[Francesco Chemolli]

The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
of the Squid-7.3 release!

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

It can be downloaded from GitHub, at
https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/releases/tag/SQUID_7_3

The main change since version 7.2 is the fix for regression bug 5520
"host or domain with leading digits rejected with ERR_INVALID_URL",
along with a handful of other improvements and fixes.

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/
