Net_FTP provides comfortable communication with FTP-Servers. It mainly provides an OO wrapper to PHP's integrated FTP functions, adding some missing features like recursive up- and downloading of complete folders, so as deleting. The directory listing possibilites were although extended to feature well structured listing of directories and/or files.

Net_FTP works fine for it's functionality, which will be extended by features like recursive filepermission change (over SITE command), different ways of dirlistings, Windows support and more. Another idea is to implement a fallback for the PHP functions using sockets.
