Yes, certainly. Or Go, or Python, etc. The only requirement (well, desire really) is that new versions of those tools be able to keep the same on-disk format of the quota data. > Before committing to converting the tools or advising the project to take > another path, I want to know if I will be maintaining them locally for > the life of the project when ProFTP updates or if they will actually > be able to be upstreamed and included as part of ProFTP. I'd recommend starting with a separate repo on e.g. GitHub, for your version of the tools. Then, the community can decide whether they like your versions better -- if so, we can look into incorporating them into the main project. (This is much the same process as done for ProFTPD modules, for example.)
