i don't know if i would go that far... it is much younger then
wu-root^H^H^H^Hftpd  but it has quite an abysmal record from when it
started.  it however has been ok lately (as in i don't recall seeing a
BugTraq post about it in a few monthes).  

Dan Jacobowitz scored Debian a PowerMac box by way of a Proftpd root
hole ;-)

i prefer OpenBSD's given its older and well audited.
