\f
+* Changes in Wget (MAINLINE).
+
+** Gnulib is now used to provide code for certain portability aspects in
+GNU Wget.
+
+** Wget uses Automake now as part of its build infrastructure.
+\f
+* Wget 1.11.1 is a bugfix release with no other user-visible changes.
+\f
* Changes in Wget 1.11.
-** configure.in now requires autoconf >= 2.61, rather than 2.59.
+** 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.
** Added --max-redirect option, allowing the user to specify what should
be the maximum number of HTTP redirects to follow.
-** Wget now saves 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.
-
-** The GnuTLS library is now also supported for https downloads.
-This is still work-in-progress. OpenSSL is still used by default; use
---with-ssl=gnutls to build with GnuTLS. OpenSSL is still required for
-NTLM authorization to work, but this should eventually change.
+** 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,
`--passive-ftp' and your firewall disallows it, you can override them
by replacing wget with a script that execs wget "$@" --no-passive-ftp.
-** The source code has migrated from CVS to Subversion. The
-repository is available at http://svn.dotsrc.org/repo/wget/; to
-checkout the trunk to a directory named `wget', use something like
-`svn checkout http://svn.dotsrc.org/repo/wget/trunk/ wget'.
+** The source code has been migrated to Mercurial. The repositories are
+available at http://hg.addictivecode.org/. Prior to this, the source
+code was hosted on Subversion (migrated from the original CVS); you can
+still get access to older tags and branches for Wget in the Subversion
+repository at http://addictivecode.org/svn/wget/.
\f
* Changes in Wget 1.10.
