I don't think I saw any other tracker on GNU or here:
http://wget.addictivecode.org/

Tried this version from source and reject seems ok so far, thanks.
Would be nice to permit multiple instances:
egrep -v RE1 | egrep -v RE2
--reject-regex RE1 --reject-regex RE2
so that you can stack up the RE's modularly
in scripts as needed.
That doesn't appear to be implemented so I use one big (or).

Not sure how much use Savannah is getting from Wget developers these days.
My understanding is that current releases of Wget (1.14, at least) actually do include regex-based accept/reject.
The relevant new options are:
--accept-regex
--reject-regex
--regex-type

Would like to see POSIX extended regular expressions added
to wget as well. PCRE compatible would also be an option.
See pcre.org and
http://www.regular-expressions.info/tools.html
Need is to match particular url's (full paths, dirs,
filenames, extensions, whatever... a real regexp) for
inclusion or exclusion of the fetch.
Also, the documentation for whatever is implemented
needs improved to remove ambiguity. Example...
What spec exactly is 'shell-*like*' and 'like' supposed to be?
Without stating the spec we cannot tell if this is
the complete set, or even know the usage of them.
"Globbing refers to the use of shell-like
special characters (wildcards), like *, ?, [ and ]"
Thanks.

Much more discussion on this at: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.wget.general/8977
Setting "Patch Included" to "No", now, because it looks like the current plan is diverging a good deal from the proposed patch.
Retargetting at 1.13. As much as I really, really want to fix this ASAP, this really isn't a patch-level fix.

Post never materialized, perhaps it was auto-detected as spam.

Patch supplied on-list (unfortunately hasn't shown up yet either on list or in archives; I received a Cc copy; look on the archive for around the time this comment was posted)

Tentatively schedule for 1.12; this really shouldn't be a ton of work. But, we need to guard against the same locale-dependent issues as fnmatch can suffer.

Rather use the regex module from gnulib.

I like the idea of using regex.c from Emacs, which gives portable, slightly-extended BREs and EREs. PCRE seems like overkill to me, and adding the extra dependency doesn't seem worth it.
I'm not entirely convinced that this is nearly as practically useful as it may be sexy; therefore this is relatively low pri for me.
