It's time to let FTP die! It is a terrible protocol, in so many
levels. The world would be better served if the energy invested in
packaging yet-another-FTP-client is rather used in helping
yet-another-obsolete-service-served-by-FTP migrate by something that
belongs to the current millenium :-\

(Of course, I'm nobody to oppose you working in whatever you wish to,
and your upstreams might be requiring this for $reasons... but still,
had to say it!)
