Not *too* late, but late.
You would have to work hard to get your application ready in time.

Besides the Savannah bugs there are also several outstanding Coverity bugs.

Go to https://scan.coverity.com, 'Projects Using Scan', search for wget and 
click on 'Add me to project'. Darshit will (hopefully) let you in and than you 
can browse and work on the list of defects. Skip the ones you are unsure of.
