+** Timestamping now uses the value from the most recent HTTP response,
+rather than the first one it got.
+
+** Authentication information is no longer sent as part of the Referer
+header in recursive fetches.
+
+** No authentication credentials are sent until a challenge is issued,
+for improved security. Authentication handling is still not
+RFC-compliant, as once a Basic challenge has been received, it will
+assume it can send credentials to any URL at that same host, and not
+just the ones at or below the original authenticated location.
+Credentials for Digest authentication are still never saved or issued
+automatically, and continue to require a challenge for each resource.
+
+** Added --max-redirect option, allowing the user to specify what should
+be the maximum number of HTTP redirects to follow.
+
+** Wget now supports saving HTTP downloads using file names specified by
+the `Content-Disposition' header. This is a standard way of specifying
+the file name used by many web dynamically generated pages. However, the
+current implementation is inefficient, and known to have bugs. It is
+EXPERIMENTAL only, and not enabled by default. Use --content-disposition
+to enable it.
+
+** The new option `--ignore-case' makes Wget ignore case when
+matching files, directories, and wildcards. This affects the -X, -I,
+-A, and -R options, as well as globbing in FTP URLs.
+
+** ETA projection is now displayed in "dot" progress output as well as
+in the default progress bar. (The dot progress is used by default when
+logging Wget's output to file using the `-o' option.)
