Purpose of lukemftpd?

[Matthew Dillon]

:In fact, it seems people prefer NetBSD's ftpd, which appears to be
:based on lukemftpd.  So why not kill off our ftpd and settle on
:moving lukemftpd into our libexec/ftpd, a-la NetBSD?

    No, we are not putting anything based on lukemftpd n our tree.  It's
    way too complex and has historically contained root-compromising bugs.
    I want our base system ftpd to be as simple as possible.
