It's still work in progress and I haven't commited any code. The idea is to provide a "nicer" syntax in the Spring XML configuration, while maintaining the possibility of using your own extensions where applicable. The code itself is pretty basic. It uses the Spring namespace extension support to parse the configuration file and sets up the DefaultFtpServertContext. > One of the reasons for asking is that I added a database "bean" to the > code.

Later I expanded it to include configurable items. Sounds interesting. Did you use a DB backed FtpServertContext? > Not sure how to introduce all of this into the ftp server project.

To make it easy to evaluate, I tend to recommend breaking it down into small patches that can be evaluated and commited each on there own. /niklas
