I'm very pleased to announce the availability of GNU Wget 1.10.
This long-awaited release is a significant improvement over the last 1.9.1
release, introducing a few important features like long file support
and NTLM authentication, lots of improvements (especially in IPv6 and SSL
code) and many bugfixes.
GNU Wget is a non-interactive command-line tool for retrieving files using
HTTP, HTTPS and FTP, which may easily be called from scripts, cron jobs,
terminals without X-Windows support, etc.
For more information, please see:

Here are the compressed sources and the GPG detached signature:
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/wget-1.10.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/wget-1.10.tar.gz.sig
The MD5 checksums of the tarball and signature are:

Last but not least, a brief personal comment. This is my first release as
Wget maintainer, and I am very excited about it. However i would like to say
that, even if he stepped down from the maintainer position, the main author
of Wget is still Hrvoje Niksic, who really did an awesome work on Wget 1.10.
Hrvoje is one of the best developers I have ever worked with and I would
like to thank him for all the effort he put on the this release of Wget.
