This directory contains many of the support packages either needed to
create a working FTP server, or to assist in the operation of existing
sites.

The WU-FTPD Development Group has stated the goal of including many of
these support facilities into future releases of the daemon.  Until that
work is completed, these supporting packages will remain available here.
