+* Changes in Wget 1.11.2
+
+** Fixed a problem in authenticating over HTTPS through a proxy.
+(Regression in 1.11 over 1.10.2.)
+
+** The combination of -r or -p with -O, which was disallowed in 1.11,
+has been downgraded to a warning in 1.11.2. (-O and -N, which was never
+meaningful, is still an error.)
+
+** Further improvements to progress bar displays in non-English locales
+(too many spaces could be inserted, causing the display to scroll).
+
+** Successive invocations of Wget on FTP URLS, with --no-remove-listing
+and --continue, was causing Wget to append, rather than replace,
+information in the .listing file, and thereby download the same files
+multiple times. This has been fixed in 1.11.2.
+
+** Wget 1.11 no longer allowed ".." to persist at the beginning of URLs,
+for improved conformance with RFC 3986. However, this behavior presents
+problems for some FTP setups, and so they are now preserved again, for
+FTP URLs only.

+* Changes in Wget 1.11.1.
+
+** Interrupted downloads no longer result in renaming the file
+(regression in 1.11 over 1.10.2).
+
+** Progress bar now displays correctly in non-English locales (and a
+related assertion failure was fixed).
+
+** Wget no longer issues a GET request over HTTP for files it should
+know it's not going to download (regression in 1.11 over 1.10.2).
+
+** Added option --auth-no-challenge, to support broken pre-1.11
+authentication-before-server-challenge, which turns out to still be
+useful for some limited cases.
+
+** Documentation of accept/reject lists in the manual's "Types of
+Files" section now explains various aspects of their behavior that may
+be surprising, and notes that they may change in the future.
+
+** Documentation of --no-parents now explains how a trailing slash, or
+lack thereof, in the specified URL, will affect behavior.
