It is not a new / different project. Wget2 is written as a Thanks for the answer. No idea if there is a consideration to include new library or not, I got impression from some other discussions on this list, it is rather not. I saw the wiki page about GNU vs Non GNU and the remark on the bottom of the page about being Non GNU 2017, but I see you are using LGPL license. For the technical side, no idea how libwget is comparable to libcurl. About libcurl I know it is avialable included on Windows and MacOS and avialable for probaly any GNU/Linux *BSD distro and it supports lots of protocols, SSL implementations (GnuTLS, OpenSSL, NSS etc) and has very good documentation including some published books. I am sure libwget has its own merits too, I am just not familiar with it, so I am not saying neither for or against.
