 * Changes in Wget 1.8.
 
+** "Recursive retrieval" now uses a breadth-first algorithm.
+Recursive downloads are faster and consume *significantly* less memory
+than before.
+
 ** A new progress indicator is now available.  Try it with
 --progress=bar or using `progress = bar' in `.wgetrc'.
 
+** Host directories now contain port information if the URL is at a
+non-standard port.
+
+** Wget now supports the robots.txt directives specified in
+<http://info.webcrawler.com/mak/projects/robots/norobots-rfc.html>.
+

 is no longer translated to `?', nor `%2B' to `+'.  Unsafe characters
