1 GNU Wget was written by Hrvoje Nikšić <hniksic@xemacs.org>,

1 However, the development of Wget could never have gone as far as it
1 has, were it not for the help of many people, either with bug reports,
1 feature proposals, patches, or letters saying “Thanks!”.
1
1 Special thanks goes to the following people (no particular order):
1
1 • Dan Harkless—contributed a lot of code and documentation of
1 extremely high quality, as well as the ‘--page-requisites’ and
1 related options. He was the principal maintainer for some time and
1 released Wget 1.6.
1
1 • Ian Abbott—contributed bug fixes, Windows-related fixes, and
1 provided a prototype implementation of the breadth-first recursive
1 download. Co-maintained Wget during the 1.8 release cycle.
1
1 • The dotsrc.org crew, in particular Karsten Thygesen—donated system
1 resources such as the mailing list, web space, FTP space, and
1 version control repositories, along with a lot of time to make
1 these actually work. Christian Reiniger was of invaluable help
1 with setting up Subversion.
1
1 • Heiko Herold—provided high-quality Windows builds and contributed
1 bug and build reports for many years.
1
1 • Shawn McHorse—bug reports and patches.
1
1 • Kaveh R. Ghazi—on-the-fly ‘ansi2knr’-ization. Lots of portability
1 fixes.
1
1 • Gordon Matzigkeit—‘.netrc’ support.
1
1 • Zlatko Čalušić, Tomislav Vujec and Dražen Kačar—feature suggestions
1 and “philosophical” discussions.

1
1 • Antonio Rosella—help and suggestions, plus the initial Italian
1 translation.

1 authentication.

1 family systems. Refactored and enhanced FTP IPv6 code. Maintained
1 GNU Wget from 2004–2007.

1 WGet.
1
1 • Gisle Vanem—many helpful patches and improvements, especially for
1 Windows and MS-DOS support.
