+* Changes in Wget 1.8.
+
+** A new progress indicator is now available. Try it with
+--progress=bar or using `progress = bar' in `.wgetrc'.
+
+** URL parser has been fixed, especially the infamous overzealous
+quoting bug. Wget no longer dequotes reserved characters, e.g. `%3F'
+is no longer translated to `?', nor `%2B' to `+'. Unsafe characters
+which are not reserved are still escaped, of course.
+\f
* Wget 1.7.1 is a bugfix release with no user-visible changes.
