Hi community, sorry for opening an issue to ask a question.

I am Momoka Yamamoto, a Bachelor's student in Japan. I am very interested in 
the QUIC protocol and was looking into how curl has implemented support for 
QUIC into itself (in a beta version) using ngtcp2. I have been wondering if 
wget has any plans of implementing QUIC? If you have already implemented QUIC, 
I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding, but no matter how much I searched, I 
couldn't find any indication that you were trying to support QUIC, so I'd like 
to know if you have any plans to do so.


If not I would like to implement support for QUIC into wget. I have read 
through the mailing list concerning past GSoC especially 
(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wget-dev/2019-04/msg00001.html) and I 
understand that it was unreasonable to implement support for QUIC in that time 
but I’m guessing now is a great time to start.


I don’t have a specific plan on how to start the implementation yet, but I just 
wanted to reach out in advance to know that there is no valid reason not to 
implement support for QUIC into wget at this time, and I won’t be wasting my 
time on this project.
