Sure.

To paraphrase my comment (or at least re-state it in a clearer way) from a 
protocol perspective, setting aside deficiencies in particular implementations, 
it seems more apropos to convey the message that FTP is inadequate in various 
ways, and to point towards some alternatives, than to imply (through the 
appearance of protocol maintenance) that FTP is alive and well and a good 
choice of protocol for new applications.
