The OCSP privacy issue has been fixed, as well as the superfluous OCSP checking 
of the stapled server certificate (see #664).

Btw, Wget2 is using (modern!?) network features that wget doesn't use. And it 
has slightly different defaults. And it using multi-threading by default. So 
`wget2` will never be 100% backwards compatible. That's why we call it `wget2` 
instead of `wget` :smile: 

But `Wget2` aims to be as backwards compatible as possible within those 
constraints (except for supporting FTP/S, which is not planned). And if you 
want to change global defaults, just add your preferences to the system-wide 
config `/etc/wget2rc` (exactly: `SYSCONFDIR/wget2rc`).

Any case of incompatibilty due to bugs or missing features (e.g. --progress:dot 
is still missing) will be fixed. See also
