I read in the list archives some discussion from 2002 of changing the units that wget uses in its output. I too would very much like to see in the next version either metric units (K=10^3, M=10^6) or the EIC binary system (Ki=2^10, Mi=2^20). It seems that the system of using the metric prefixes for numbers 2^n is a simple accident of history. Any thoughts on this?
