i did so many months ago, but no answer or other reaction.
and btw, i didn't translated ui messages from wget.pot (ru.po) but translated 
the man-page directly in nroff format, like this:

.IP "\fB\-Y on/off\fR" 4
.IX Item "-Y on/off"
.PD 0
.IP "\fB\-\-proxy=on/off\fR" 4
.IX Item "proxy=on/off"
.PD
ÐÐÐÐÐÑÐÐÐ ÑÐÑÐÐÑÐ ÐÑÐÐÑÐ. ÐÐÐÑÑÐÐÐ ÐÐ 
ÑÐÐÐÑÐÐÐÑ, ÐÑÐÐ ÐÑÐÐÑÐ ÐÐÑÐÐÐÐÑÐ.


my translation is already included in ASPLinux (http://www.asplinux.ru) and 
ALTLinux (http://altlinux.com/)
and as i've migrated to Debian (which has big russian community),
i thought it would be nice if more russian documentation was in a distro

this situation isnt only for wget.1 but for many other great apps, such as 
bash.1, cdrecord1., vim.1...
unlike eg kde, gnu apps dont provide any realy kind of infrastructure for i18n.
just look how much i18n work is done for kde
http://i18n.kde.org/stats/gui/HEAD/toplist.php
http://i18n.kde.org/stats/doc/HEAD/toplist.php, they give cvs/svn accounts for 
translators, they dont require stupid disclaimers!
and kde docs are changing fast, while commandline apps' docs aint, so less work 
is actually needed
