Hello,

     Wget should have a option to follow "302 Moved Temporarily"
responses but keeping original filename and path. Opensuse.org
download site

http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/

    Uses 302 to load balancing between mirrors. If I try to mirror it
using wget, I got a lot of sparced directories.

    Using -nH doesn't help as some site use different parent paths. Ex:
http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source/docu/RELEASE-NOTES.en.rtf
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source/docu/RELEASE-NOTES.en.html

    Wget could also have a directory option that remove the given url
from the destin path. Ex:

http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/

would result in files

./docs/
./docs/xxx
./docs/yyy

and not

pub/opensuse/distribution/docs/
pub/opensuse/distribution/docs/xxx
pub/opensuse/distribution/docs/yyy

     I wish this could be in next wget version :-)
