I was curious about this claim "Successor of GNU Wget", so I looked at
the canonical GNU Wget site:
https://gnu.org/s/wget which states:
Currently GNU Wget2 is being developed. Please help us if you can
with testing, docs, organization, development, ... see you at Wget2
collaboration site <
https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2>
For the source and home-page URLs, I would prefer to promote the gitlab
site over the github one, especially since that's the one referenced
from <
https://gnu.org/s/wget>.
What do you think?
