[Bug-wget] Feature request

[Shivashis Padhi]

Hello maintainers,
I wrote this script in python which restarts the wget process if the speed
hits a particular minimum set by the user.

Though it needs a little tidying up, I would love to add this as a feature
to original wget code. Please guide me on this.
Best Regards,

Hi,

Most of the new features are now better shipped in wget2 and libwget.

Development is done in GitLab: https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2
Docs: https://gnuwget.gitlab.io/wget2/reference/modules.html

I don't know if that particular feature would fit into wget2, but a
generalisation
of it might be a good addition. I'm thinking on some functions in
libwget to set
the max/min download speed, or something along the lines. There aren't
currently
any such controls and they'd be a good addition IMO.

In any case, we're always pleased to receive MRs in the GitLab
repository
for discussion.
