Squid is a forwarding proxy nginx is a webserver, with possibility to forward requests to proxy-backends

You now want to use the nginx 'framework' to build a forwarding proxy as a separate module like http and mail, is this right?

i think he wants nginx to cache certain things (ie images), so nginx would't forward the request to proxy backend but serve the local copy (and save bandwidth).
