I think it would be a good idea to use the same ftp program as FreeBSD, |

because their ftp program is great, and it will be another nice thing for |

FreeBSD users who need to use Linux. It'll make them feel at home. Also, |

If the new ftp program works well (haven't tested it yet), I'm willing to |

make it the default download app for the above-stated reasons. |
