sorry. it's all my fault. i have been ***EXTREMELY*** busy lately working on a research project and i haven't been working on wget as much as i wanted. i cannot but apologize. i'll try to do my best to catch up ASAP. anyway, i just released the first alpha 1 of wget 1.10: ftp://ftp.deepspace6.net/pub/ds6/sources/wget/wget-1.10-alpha1.tar.gz ftp://ftp.deepspace6.net/pub/ds6/sources/wget/wget-1.10-alpha1.tar.bz2 and i was thinking about releasing wget before the end of april, after we have performed some tests on the 1.10 code. so, the official feature freeze would be sunday, april 9th. but, since the recenly integrated LFS feature seems to be very useful and there's not been a release of wget in ages, unless we have a major reason (like fixing a serious bug or integrating an extremely cool and widely used feature) i think we should really focus on testing and bugfixing at this point. WRT your patches, please post them on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list with some comments on what they do and especially why you think they are needed. don't bother to clean the code yet, as they might be rejected or cleaned up by other developers. -- Aequam memento rebus in arduis servare mentem...
