+* Changes in Wget 1.5.3+dev
+
+** New -K / --backup-converted / backup_converted = on option causes files
+modified due to -k to be saved with a .orig prefix before being changed. When
+using -N as well, it is these .orig files that are compared against the server.
+
+** New --follow-tags / follow_tags = ... option allows you to restrict wget to
+following only certain HTML tags when doing a recursive retrieval. -G /
+--ignore-tags / ignore_tags = ... is just the opposite -- all tags but the ones
+you specify will be followed.
+
+** New --waitretry / waitretry = SECONDS option allows waiting between retries
+of failed downloads. Wget will use "linear" backoff, waiting 1 second after the
+first failure, 2 after the second, up to SECONDS. waitretry is set to 10 by
+default in the system wgetrc.
+
+** New -p / --page-requisites / page_requisites = on option causes wget to
+download all ancillary files necessary to display a given HTML page properly
+(e.g. inlined images).
