Right. In fact, IIRC, I think that there are more, important FTP
improvements in that code than there are VMS-specific ones. However,
they're far too risky to go into 1.11.x, which I'm trying to keep to
small, critical bugfixes (plus perhaps some appropriate documentation
fixes). That's why I invited you to integrate it for 1.12, as we have
more time for testing that. I don't want to spend a ton of time testing
1.11.x prereleases; and 1.12 will hopefully have a better testing
infrastructure anyway.

That could be cool.
