  With Zihang's copyright assignment process over, is there anything

 Nothing really, I am going to push this series soon.

 Zihang, thanks for your contribution!

[Bug-wget] RFC 2616 is dead

2014-06-09 Thread Daniel Stenberg

Hey friends

Just a FYI: HTTP 1.1 now has a new set of specs, see RFC7230 to RFC7235. The 
trusted and old 2616 is now obsolete...

Hi Daniel,

Thanks a lot for the heads up. I've been going theough the updated
documents and am liking some of the changes so far.
RFC 7230-5 seem like a more stable set of specifications. I'm looking
forward to clean some of the code from Wget.

However, what do you think about its adoption? Will the server
softwares be updated to support the new specifications anytime soon?

Re: [Bug-wget] Contribute to New Wget Test Suite.

 Hello,all!

 I'm Sagar,from India currently pursuing B.E in Computer Sc. from BITS
 Pilani.
 New to the open source community,I'm eager to contribute.
 I've been learning Python for quite some time, and i'm quite
 comfortable with it.
 I have decent experience with git.
 I would like to contribute to the New Wget Test suite.
 I'm willing to learn any other requisite to start contributing,
 and I can devote time,i have vacations going on right now.It'll be a
 great opportunity for me to learn by working with such a big
 organization.

 Thank you.

have you already cloned the wget repository and had a look at the new
tests suite written in Python?  You can find it in the parallel-wget
branch (you should be able to run it trough make check).

git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org//wget.git
git checkout parallel-wget

If you haven't done it yet, I would suggest you to start playing with it
and launch tests so to get an idea of how it works.  If you have any
problems, don't hesitate to let us know.

Regards,
Giuseppe



[Bug-wget] [Bug-Wget] Update VMS Info?

2014-06-09 Thread Darshit Shah
Hi,

I was going through the VMS specific files in the source and realized
that a lot of the documentation seems to be a little outdated.

For example the WGET.HLP file still refers to Wget 1.12 as the latest
version and explains everything based on it. Maybe it can be updated
by whoever is working on a VMS system?

There's another request too. `make syntax-check` gives a few issues
with the config.h_vms file. Now I'm not sure if those declarations are
indeed required or not. If not, can we please get rid of them?
