Re: FTP Update

[Harald Tveit Alvestrand <harald@alvestrand.no>]

You may have heard about updates to TCP that would allow it to function 
efficiently at gigabit speeds. I don't know about anything specifically for 
FTP.

These are sometimes discussed in the TSVWG working group of the IETF. 
Please ask there.

Note: There are also some efforts in high-speed file transfer going on 
within the GRID Forum - please check there too.
