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).
+
+** New -E / --html-extension / html_extension = on option causes wget to append
+".html" to text/html filenames not ending in regexp "\.[Hh][Tt][Mm][Ll]?".
+
+** New type of .wgetrc command -- "lockable Boolean". Can be set to on, off,
+always, or never. This allows the .wgetrc to override the commandline. So far,
+passive_ftp is the only .wgetrc command which takes a lockable Boolean.
+
+** Polish and Russian message translation files have been added.
