Regrettably, Mauro has had to resign the maintainership of wget. (Of course, many thanks to him for his work, and at least as many thanks to Hrvoje for writing it in the first place.)
I have asked a few people individually if they'd like to take over the package, but none has had time. Would anyone on this list feel that they have enough time and inclination to be the new maintainer? Please write me if you would like to volunteer. I'll post in various places if no one comes forward, but this seemed like the most likely place ... Thanks, Karl
