Hello!
As it's not a bug report but as I also have no idea where else ask the team
(please tell me where to direct this question for future use):
Question: What's the story behind wget's "--random-wait" Option.
According to the man page
"…A 2001 article in a publication devoted to development on
a popular consumer platform provided code to perform this analysis on
the fly.
Its author suggested blocking at the class C address level to ensure
automated
retrieval programs were blocked despite changing DHCP-supplied addresses."
I am very interested in the story behind this, but I can't find any
information
on this topic in the changelog file, through search engines, etc.
Thank you very much in advance for your time and efforts!
Lev
