Bug#385929: RFA: vsftpd -- The Very Secure FTP Daemon

[Daniel Jacobowitz <dan@debian.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the vsftpd package.

The package description is:
 A lightweight, efficient FTP server written from the ground up with
 security in mind.
 .
 vsftpd supports both anonymous and non-anonymous FTP, PAM authentication,
 bandwidth limiting, and the Linux sendfile() facility.

Vsftpd is an easy package to maintain; Chris is very responsive to problems.
However, the ways network servers, inetd-using packages, et cetera interact
requires more attention than I've given it lately.

I can provide a Subversion repository containing the recent history of
vsftpd packaging to any adopter.
