I use wget from cygwin fairly often. Today, when I was updating via
cygwin setup - select packages, I did not see wget listed in the web
category. I hope this is a glitch, not a death notice for wget.
PS. cygwin update works more smoothly than any other software
source I deal with. Bravo.

It's in the Net category. You can locate it by typing "wget" into the search box.

Is it worth releasing a new issue to add Web category?

The twins, wget and wput, should be listed in the same place(s).
Upon f inding wput in the web category, I didn't think to look further.
